Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Data Clock at every 3 weeks against E's every 8 months. Data Clock also leads on ratings volume (138 vs 1). E's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
