Pyrethrin is the generally accepted one. It's sold at Home Depot under several different brand names; check active ingredients.
Pyrethrin is an option as well. If you don't muck up the ratio of neem to water than spraying on the underside of the leaves can work (I've done it) with little or no negative effects on the plant.

There are other ways to address spidermites but generally Neem is going to be the ultimate solution to an infestation.

It's always good to have choices Doesn't hurt to start with something a little less heavy than Neem, like a insecticidal soap.

Start weak and change tactics if you've been using the same pest control for more than a month.. pests can build a tolerance to certain things which is why it's good to switch it up if you're finding something not working.
