I always use designer as the basis for all of my guis, they have a grid layout which is very easy to use. Nathan Horne has written a great script called mlib that is written in the basis of using it in maya but you can easily edit it to not solely be used in maya. It allows for directly using the ui files without having to compile them to py beforehand, it does this conversion internally for you. Ui files make it much easier when you have to go in and edit someone else's ui. I know some people on here find it easy to code all of it themselves and there is nothing wrong with that,just personal preference. I just feel it is much easier to use when you are wanting very specific placement and can visualize it while you build it.
