How do bond strengths compare in ionic and covalent bonding?

My teacher says it depends on the substance itself, but I don't quite get why. Care to explain?
He also said something about double/triple bonds vs single bonds vs different levels of attraction in ionic bonds. Is there no general rule to follow?
