I have never tried Shimano Di2 or Campagnolo EPS. However, when I decided to go with electronic shifting I faced the same question. For me, however, it was a no-brainer. I went with SRAM Force eTap AXS. Why?

1. It's not Shimano. Not that I have anything against Shimano but all I've really used has been Shimano and I wanted something entirely different.
2. It's not Campagnolo. I've had too many problems with Campy parts failing and being unreliable.
3. There are no wires!
4. There are no junction boxes or batteries in inconvenient places
5. It's easy to stow an extra battery in your pocket or saddle bag.
6. The shifting is very intuitive, left goes up, right goes down, both move the front.
   1. The Shimano paddles looked too small and seemed like they would be clumsy to shift in the winter with thick gloves.

What I don't like about the SRAM Force eTap AXS groupset:

1. The graphics. Ugly and garrish.
2. Limited choice of chainring sizes.
3. Front shifting feels a little slow.
