Well the differences between the T-34 and the panther which ever model is simply the fact that the weights are different. The Panther in all regards should be classed as a heavy tank while the T-34 is a a medium tank, yes the T-34\85 had been upgunned to take on the heavier tanks but it was still a medium tank.

So with that in which regards are we referring to? Tank Vs Tank? The Panther over the T-34, but now in terms of numbers of being produces and the sheer amount that could be deployed is the T-34 over the panther.

Now what about in terms of "effects" after the war? Which tank has stayed in active service even to now in secondary countries? the T34, so which one is better?

Yes in a one on one engagment the panther would win, again because it is a heavy tank by nature. It is like comparing a sherman to a panther.
