Yes.
Although, for most use cases, they’re both too bloated.
On Guillem’s recommendation I’ve switched to inetutils-syslogd
now, and like it so far. When sending to a logserver, you have
to enable that in /etc/default/inetutils-syslogd (for security
reasons), and the logserver can then be e.g. an rsyslogd with
all of its advanced functionality.
