Mecanum vs. Swerve Drive

I'm doing some research for an offseason project this year. We have used mecanum wheels in the past to great success, however I want to know if a swerve drive would serve us better.

What are the main differences between mecanum and swerve drive and the pros/cons of each drive systems? Or if there is already a thread that discussed this, can someone link it in a post?
