I will recommend you to use Laravel beacuse of:

  • Built in authentication
  • Awesome migrations
  • Artisan commands to do anything in your project
  • Built in pagination (It's took long in Codeigniter)
  • Eloquent (Very easy way to interact with your database)
  • Relationships
  • Routes
  • Easy API building
  • Easy debugging
  • Huge number of packages and libraries etc.

Each framework have their own features and capabilities, used during the development of application. Laravel is one of the highly used, open-source modern web application framework that designs customized web applications quickly and easily.Laravel is used not only for big project but also best to use for small project. Best framework in 2018

If you want a framework with exceptional performance, with nearly no configuration, not using cmd and not interested with large scale libraries and also your project is in small scale it's better to use codeIgniter.

Both framework are good in there place. Laravel made from multiple open source project which make laravel more efficient , reliable and secure. Where, laravel used blade engine. It used composer for package manager. It provide unit testing. It provide more security. It provide beautiful redis queue front portal called laravel horizon. Disadvantage : laravel used predis which is slower, because it is written in php.where phpredis is more faster, but laravel 5.* Don't support it.

Right now, I personally prefer Laravel since it supports PHP7 unlike CodeIgniter (I still haven't read if CodeIgniter 3 supports PHP7). And based on personal experience, Laravel (through Eloquent) has "beautifully-written-codes".
