Should we use restricted stock or vesting stock options?

Question

Hi! I have some trouble figuring out the best way to go here: We are an S-Corp with a few employees. There is one more co-founder besides me, we have an agreement on common stock. However, there is a few more people who have been doing various tasks for the startup and we want to put their contributions in a more formal framework. The company has no significant revenue yet. Which is the best way to go? What kind of criteria should we take into account to make the best decision?
