SAPRouter is probably the better method, it's simple to set up, simple to secure and gives the full utility of the SAPGUI.

If you don't already have the web services set up the webgui is a bit more difficult to set up and much trickier to secure. If you do already have a web portal the web gui can be set up quickly.

But I've never had a user tell me they prefer the webgui over the sapgui.

Webgui is fine for a couple of transactions but for normal use I strongly recommend you to configure a router so they can login via regular GUI. Difference between them is basically interface but you won't get all the funtionalities with webgui. You can find a lot of details in help.sap.com
