New for 2017! ABAI is pleased to release the CE Scanner, which allows you to scan in and out of CE sessions using your smartphone. Quickly fill out your user profile and select which types of CE you wish to earn (not all sessions are approved for all CE types). Scan in and out of each session using the QR codes posted at the entrance and exit of each session. When connected to the internet, your scan history will be synched with the ABAI database, meaning CE certificates will be available for download much sooner than in previous years. A record of your scan history will also be saved in the app, for your reference. Happy scanning!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TallyFlex at 4.3 against ABAI CE Scanner's 1.0. TallyFlex also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (87 vs 2). ABAI CE Scanner's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
