I've been using both, and I've found the Dremora to be superior against all types of enemies. Frost attacks tend to mess up his game, but most thins using Frost at level 30 die in one power attack, or I kill them for him

It only takes one, max two power attacks against most enemies, so large groups aren't such a big problem. With the 100 perk to have TWO summons, they can take down whole armies.
I use Storm Atronach against archers that the Dremora gets lost on the way to, and dragons. Once a dragon is grounded, I switch them.
