Encoders: on servo or on guideway?

Which is better? An encoder that is incorporated into the linear
guideway or one that is part of the servo motor?

There is a company called Hiwin that sells an "intelligent" linear
guideway system which has the encoders built into the guideway rail.
Is this better?

Thanks, Peter.
