2 very different animals.

Sig Sauer makes a fine firearm, very high quality and reliabilty. I personally don't like they way they fit. Notice the line of the bore sits way above a shooters hand, it's a tall gun. This can tend to create more muzzle flip. The Glock has a lower bore line, the handle is canted at a different angle as well (30 degrees I believe) creating a more natural pointing gun that doesn't require conscious adjustment when aiming.

I believe the Glock has undergone more rigorous testing due to its target of being an international military sidearm as well as law enforcement. I remember some of the testing was the gun was fired in water while sand was being poured into the action at the same time the gun was cycling. It keeps on going!
