Verdict
Circle Communities and Prime DeFi both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 91% of Prime DeFi's written reviews are positive against 65% of Circle Communities's. Prime DeFi also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Circle Communities's advantage is ratings volume (86K vs 53) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
