Compared to him, she is nice. [ This might be said if someone said 'she' wasn't very nice, and one wants to compare her to someone else already mention. ] She is nicer than he is.

I think both will work, depending on how you use it.
She is nice compared to him -> She is nice, he is not.

The other thing one could say is She is nicer than him. -> He is nice, but she is even nicer.
