Cloudtrail is primarily used when you want to monitor the API calls made to a particular service or Application. It is primarily used to monitor API calls and is applicable for select services only.

CloudWatch is used for logging events that happen on any particular AWS service. It is the default logging service provided by AWS and can be configured to detect Alarm conditions such as High CPU, Low Disk Space, Network Parameters, etc.

CloudWatch can be used to monitor Cloudtrail service but not the other way around.
