I actually find MOLLE to be more adaptable, simply because the ALICE clips didn't migrate well to other sizes of belts, not to mention got too cold in winter and got too hot in summer and dug into you 365 days a year if you were putting them on a normal belt. And they won't even go around the thick cowhide I wear around my middle every day.

MOLLE and MALICE on the other hand, you just turn it into a belt loop and away you go. And if you are using a pack or vest with MOLLE webbing, it is a lot more stable becuase you interlace the carrier and pouch. With ALICE gear, when I tried vests, it just felt like the pouch was hanging there and it was always bouncing. The pouches on my MAV on the other hand are on there SOLID when you lace the webbing together properly, they feel like they aren't some modular, cobbled together thing, and they don't sway around unless I've got way too small a load in the pouch.

Now, that being said, I'm not fan of SDS- thier quality is a little sketchy. But when you start talking about the quality manufacturers (SpecOps, Tactical Tailor, TAG, Eagle, HSGI, Emdom) it beats not only the issue MOLLE but also the issue ALICE gear like a drum.
