Both solutions are fine. It mainly depends on what you want to do with the data. If you want to implement a quick logging solution for a specific error that you intend to fix and be done with, or if you are just trying to gather information on a rare error, cflog works great. If you want a comprehensive site-wide error tracking solution that lets you report on errors and send summary emails, then having the errors logged inside of a database helps.
