OR
Consider ALL factors:
Which song charted better? Had more airplay?

Which song is more respected/more iconic?
Which song had more of an impact on pop culture?
Which video had more of an impact on pop culture?
Which performances are better? Whose live vocals are better? Whose dance routine is better?
to me Baby One More Time is much more iconic (both the video and the song).. It is definitely not respected more but there is no question that it had a bigger effect on pop culture. Those opening three notes alone are iconic in my opinion.
Chart/Sales - Pretty sure Britney got the sales, not sure about chart and airplay.
Video - Britney
Song - Beyonce
Impact - Britney
Respected - It's really hard to tell, Brtiney got a shaddy image among most people but this song is one of her works that are respected by alot of countdowns and magazines and well, people.
I will got with Britney although I love Crazy In Love, it's a great song, esp' if you're more into up tempos but BOMT will be remembered and talked about for a long, long time.
