For a well designed swerve drive, it should have similar traction to a tank drive, but you can point that traction in any direction you want. Combined with the high off-axis coefficient of friction of non-omni wheels, it's much harder to push a swerve drive around.
For a poorly designed swerve drive, high unexpected lateral loads will simply break it.
