Answer 1

That depends on your purpose and need, what i know about these two is OpenNLP is opensource and CoreNLP is not of course.

But If you will look at the accuracy level Stanford CoreNLP have more accurate detection than OpenNLP. Recently I did comparison for the Part Of Speech (POS) tagging for both and yes which is the most imp part in any NLP task, So in my analysis the winner was CoreNLP.

Going forward for NER there as well CoreNLP have the more accurate results compare to OpenNLP.

So if you are just starting you can take up OpenNLP later if needed you can migrate to Stanford CoreNLP.
