Shamans can haste, regen, stat buff, slow, heal, SoW, summon a pet, make potions, DoT, nuke, and canni for very efficient mana regen.
Clerics can heal, rez and nuke undead with poor mana regeneration.
Outside raiding or working with a charmed pet where complete heal becomes ridiculously mana efficient, a shaman is almost always the better partner.
Plus Shaman is a LOT more fun to play than a cleric (in my humble opinion) - Plus you have the option to solo. The downside is Shamans are quite possiblyt the worst raiding class in all of EQ - you need 1 and anything over that is basically dead weight.

In a strict duo shaman wins hands down, but as someone said add more players into your group and cleric is more preferable. The most sick trio for example is a charm class (not just enc, also necro,druid given there are undead or animals around), cleric + any class that can reasonably tank stuff. Hell even a well geared ranger will do the job.
Paladin + shaman still have a very low DPS, you need some DPS class to make a powerful trio.
