ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hercules CyclePay holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hercules CyclePay has 3.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of CVA Hercules's written reviews are positive against 41% of Hercules CyclePay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
