Majority of Networks are running OSPF and a few larger ones like UUNET are
running
ISIS. For the most part, you will never need run ISIS.
My recommendation would be to implement OSPF, it has a lot more knobs for
tuning.
If you are careful, you can even run OSPF and EIGRP together during the
migration period
and migrate one site at a time without any down time.

recent trends towards one or the other ?
