Multiple Devise users or one user and permissions with CanCanCan?

Question

What is the preferred way to achieve two types of users (Client, Admin) with different attributes and behaviors?

Having two types of users created by Devise or having just one User model and setting permissions via CanCanCan?

Thanks

I would say single model with permissions. I made a detailed response on how to approach this here:
