Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PandaDoc at 4.2 against Close CRM's 3.5. PandaDoc also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 weeks) and ratings volume (291 vs 52). Close CRM's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PandaDoc sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Close CRM asks for nothing beyond the download.
PandaDoc holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PandaDoc has 291 ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of PandaDoc's written reviews are positive against 36% of Close CRM's.
PandaDoc ships an update every 8 days, Close CRM every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on October 21, 2026.
