Keylogger hardware can store up to 64KB data, while spy software allows you store up to xx GB data as long as your hard disk has enough free space.

Spy software can also capture screen snapshots, incoming/outgoing emails, both sides of online conversations etc. etc. while keylogger hardware only records keystrokes like a keylogger software.

Normally spy software need to be installed under a Windows Administrator account to have full permission to function correctly, while keylogger hardware does not need this at all!
In conclusion, both of them have strongpoints and disadvantages simultaneously. You'd better take all things into consideration carefully before making the choice.
