Generally, the Australia one is the better option, it allow you to stay in Australia for around 3 years, and at least a year.
But you will need to meet their requirements first.
The New Zealand Working and Holiday visa, which is a bit easier to apply, only allow you to stay 6 months, 9 months at most in New Zealand.
So if you can apply for Australia one, try it first.
