I voted for the Pi, as this is the more obvious answer to these proposed two options. But I agree with fvan that there are plenty of options. As a matter of fact, I think that the point is a bit different; a serious IoT implementation (something more than the corresponding blinking LED experiment) has not a "best" between a micro controller and Embedded device (I suggest Linux but also W10 is a good player in the game). Excluding some obvious cases we always should consider and IoT application as a implementation inside an environment so I expect a design integrating micro controllers, a networked connection, sensors and a "central mind" that can be a micro controller but sure it is better considering an embedded platform (without excluding, just to consider a second alternative, the Beagle Bone)
