Both, you want as many options as possible, to recover anything that you consider important to you on the phone.

So if you can use services like Photobucket, Dropbox, Box, OneDrive, Google Drive, your computer, flash drives or an external hard drive, then I say go for it. If your pictures, text and emails are not important, don't bother backing them up. But don't freak out when they get lost for any reason. Because every phone is just one puddle, toilet, sidewalk or zombie roller coaster with a triple loop ride, from getting lost, stolen or destroyed.

I prefer the iTunes backup over the iCloud one.
