I agree on the cable steer... can't stand it. It does give you quicker reaction time, and some guys love them, but to me they are hard to steer at the exact direction I want. Also, I've found that you need to keep your foot on the pedal at all times, otherwise it will turn on it's own. I like electric steer, I can set it on constant power when necessary and then pretty much ignore it, rather than stand on one foot and try to balance, steer and fish all at the same time. As far as brands, I've only had one motorguide, the rest minnkota, but I'm sure they're both good. Just make sure you get the steering configuration that you're looking for because there is a big difference.
