Powder Vanilla Extract VS Liquid Vanilla Extract

When would you use the powder vs the liquid? Is one better than the other ? I have always used the liquid but have seen the powder in the stores and was just wondering is the powder stronger in taste than the liquid?

Vanilla extract powder vs liquid
Vanilla powder gives a really concentrated flavor, so if you're substituting powder for beans, extract or paste in recipes, use ½ teaspoon of ground powder for 1 bean, or ½ teaspoon of ground powder for every teaspoon of extract or paste. ... The FDA stipulates that vanilla extract must contain 35% alcohol.
