Buddhism is an immense philosophy. To claim that it is true would be redundant, as Buddhism is divided amongst many Buddhists with specific disagreements over certain teachings. It's something that you need to judge for yourself, not have someone else judge for you.

No religion or philosophy is true or even better than any of its competitors. There is no truth-o-meter that can be fed the positions expressed to determine the best. Most religions or philosophies are an attempt to understand the interactions of people with everything else. Each satisfies some folks and disturbs other.
