One advantage of screen is that it is a default package on most Unixy systems. Thus if you logged into a remote server you are more likely to have screen available for use than tmux.
This is why it is worth learning basics of screen.
Screen window splitting -
Unlike on tmux a shell has to be spawned explicitly after splitting.
To do a vertical split - Ctrl+a | then Ctrl+TAB to go to the other
split. Then as usual, use Ctrl+a c to create a window.
For a horizontal split use Ctrl+a S.
