Default Compression vs. push-fit fittings?

In locations where one may not want to use a hot torch (like 5cm from the
main gas pipe!), which is considered the more reliable joining method? What
are the pro's/con's of each? I've used compression, but never push-fit.

Talking about 15mm copper piping for hot water (rads) if that makes any
difference.
