The sharingan is much more suitable for battle in my opinion. It allows you to keep track of you opponent's sudden change of movements and dodge attacks at the last moment, as opposed to the byakugan who just increases you field of view. It also allows you to copy your opponent's jutsu, depending on it's difficulty of course.Much like the byakugan it allows you to see chakra (also in different colors). It allows you to cast powerful ninjutsu on your opponents, and it's power can increase with work. It's an incredibly useful thing to have in training since it will allow you to speed up the process by a lot.And then you have the 3 tomoe sharingan which allowed Sasuke to keep track even of 1 tail Naruto when he just awaken it, and MS/EMS which powers up the usual sharingan abilities further, and brings up another couple OP abilities, including Susanoo. But again, that's overkill. Even the 2 tomoe sharingan is better than the byakugan overall.
