In Diablo III instead of having numbers to compare they just have a bunch of up and down arrows for Attack, Defense and some third Stat so you don't even have to think about it. But it turns out if you actually look at the numbers the arrows are lying half the time so I don't even really understand their system.

They don't factor in stuff that boosts specific abilities, so if you spam a really strong spell all the time, and the new item gives +10% damage to that spell, it is basically a 10% damage upgrade, but since there's no easy way to tell the player this you have to use some online spreadsheet if you want to minmax
