Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Trans at 5.0 against Degreed's 3.6. Trans also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Degreed's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
