Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FairOrg LeadApp at none against ClayLab's 2. FairOrg LeadApp also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.4). ClayLab's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 28 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
