# Barcode to Sheet vs DataScan

The clearest difference is review sentiment: DataScan at 100% against Barcode to Sheet's 26%. Barcode to Sheet's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (112 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Barcode to Sheet sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and DataScan sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Barcode to Sheet holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Barcode to Sheet has 112 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Barcode to Sheet's written reviews are positive against 100% of DataScan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
