I used Hall effect sensors for a project and found they needed a fair bit of calibration. Shunt resistors also did the job with fewer problems but this was a 16p2s module.

Hall sensors have a lot of issues. If you can handle the power dissipation in the resistor, a shunt plus a fancy zero-drift difference amplifier is almost always going to be superior.
Hall sensors win for very high currents, high bandwidths, and when isolation or noninvasive measurement is required.
