i've played them both and both are different then each other by quite a bit for rts games. Do you want to play ww2, or future wars. Do you want alot of units or less with more management. Do you want large battles veiewed from afar or close tight battles viewed up close? Both games have good graphics. Enviroments are totatally different, you have air land water for supcom, and city and field type battles in coh.
It should come down to your machine. If you don't have dual core, forget supcom. Which brings me to the last thing you need to think about. In my opinion supcom has the lesser of support, promises made and what not and not followed through with in patches. While i had dual core cpu, alot of people didn't. I couldn't begin to tell you how many terrible multiplayer games I wasted up to and over an hour on. Supcom's multiplayer is fun if everyone playing has good computers, but if just one guy doesn't, the game makes up for him by making time go by really slow, or just disconnecting altogether. In my opinion supcom multiplayer was ruined by this. When i was into it, around and after release, there would be less then 15 games, usually less then 10 up at a time to join. On the other hand company of heroes seems to have a pretty strong multiplayer community base. Both games are fun, and have their own unique plus's. Over all though for replayablity and single player, company of heroes would take it.
