Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: CallerID at none against Call Blocker's shown. CallerID also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.6). Call Blocker's advantage is review sentiment (78% vs 45%) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Call Blocker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and CallerID sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
