SWTOR is definitely a great choice of MMO, specially for solo players. I wouldn't recommend any other MMO out there.
Well... maybe Diablo III... but maybe....
Class design and mechanics in WoW are overall better, and your abilities interact with each other more. Combat and controls feel more responsive. Both games have a terrible default UI, but WoW provides support for modding, while SWTOR's can't be modded at all. Some stuff that comes pretty standard to MMOs these days like LFD are also missing from SWTOR.
IMO, SWTOR just doesn't bring enough new stuff to the table. Even if it were exactly like WoW and as good as WoW in most aspects (it's not), plus better in graphics and questing/storyline, I wouldn't play it, for the same reason I didn't play Warhammer, or Age of Conan, or Aion, or Rift, etc. WoW is good, and reliable. There's a reason it's almost 10 times bigger than the next most popular imitator, and most of its self-proclaimed "killers" are either dead or free to play. SWTOR is already bleeding users and likely to go down that same path.
Anyway getting back to the OP's question, I wouldn't recommend WoW since most endgame content involves grouping up, and by extension I wouldn't recommend SWTOR either.
