AFAIK, Sorrenson only does Flash 7 FLV, which is pretty bad compression compared to Flash 8's ON2 codec.
If you have a flash license, the flash encoder that comes with it is pretty good. If you don't have a flash license, you can use the free Riva encoder, which also does Flash 7 FLV files (my guess would be similar quality as Sorenson). There is also a way to do Flash 8 conversion using the same tools that Riva uses (ffmpeg), and also allowing you to do it from a command line (so you can script it). It is a bit hacky though and requires the use of an On2 codec that is no longer available from their site.
