Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: CertusAlert at free against Simpplr's paid. CertusAlert also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Simpplr's advantage is ratings volume (541 vs 1) and iOS requirement (17.6 vs 26.5). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
