I can't really compare the two, it's apples and oranges. Sure I can compare them directly but you know that the effect and uses will be different.

MJ: I can't lie, I love cannabis. Here is how I view it. It's either a party substance or introspection private thing. Personally, if I have nothing to worry about, no stress in my life, then MJ is just great. It helps me with relaxation, creativity, introspection, etc. It certainly beats Kratom in relaxation realm. Anyone who has done both can confirm that MJ is just stronger and more pleasant. But, here is the thing, I do get major anxiety from MJ, only if I don't have my shit together. If I have stress in my life, forget it, I don't touch MJ. Cannabis helps me, or let's say enhances my lifestyle when I have everything right going. Some people say that whatever you feel, MJ enhances it. That's how it is for me, feeling good then MJ makes it better, feeling bad then I'd rather not touch it.

Kratom: A great herb. It's hard to compare the two because they are so different but yet so helpful. Kratom is probably the opposite of MJ for me. If I feel great and not stressed then I am not really looking for a boost. But when I feel awful then Kratom comes to the rescue. It's one of those mild herbs that you don't feel effecting you but it does. It's mild, it's uplifting, it works when you are stressed, overwhelmed, fatigued, or have anxiety. Kratom makes you right. I consider it a tonic because it revitalizes you. I was burned out not long ago but with Kratom I literally took on the world, I am not going into details but I took on more than I usually did a few months back, and thanks to Kratom I did really well, it was a lifesaver, in a sense literally. If I did MJ instead I'd have a panic attack but with Kratom I managed to do what I set out to do, stress free.

That's how I see it. Both are great herbs but they are so different and have their own uses.
