I have also shifted from Codeigniter to Laravel. The things i like most in Laravel over Codeigniter are:

  1. Built in authentication
  2. Awesome migrations
  3. Artisan commands to do anything in your project
  4. Built in pagination (It's took long in Codeigniter)
  5. Eloquent (Very easy way to interact with your database)
  6. Relationships (Its make my life easy because i hate joins)
  7. Routes
  8. Easy API building
  9. Easy debugging
  10. Huge number of packages and libraries

and a lot more. I can make a more longer list.

Both framework are good in there place. Laravel used multiple open source technology to make laravel more efficient and reliable. Eg. For view : laravel used blade template engine. Laravel used composer as a package manager. Laravel used psr-4 . Both framework follow MVC model. Laravel provide more secure platform.

We can't rate the value of Laravel 4 unless we understand some advanced OOP terminology. But I want to state that Laravel 4 is the most prominent framework to date for its some cool OOP Architecture. And now it's the best one as you can scale it in any sense, as long as you adhere to best coding ethics. Service Locator, IoC, Repository, Facade, Factory, Builder even Singleton is used here which is awesome. It's not so fast but better coding and better use of queue, cache can make it faster.

On the other hands, Codeigniter is not so scalable for its CI God object. But in OOP we can do many things possible with better structure of our App.

Both of them have its own specialties. But Laravel 4 depends a lot of a number of external packages for its functionality. To do this, it is using Composer as a dependency manager.
