Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sofinet Cloud at none against Scan Hero's 10. Sofinet Cloud also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 66%). Scan Hero's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 14 months) and chart position (#34 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
