Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: PI at weekly against CommerceNext's every 2 months. PI also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 1). CommerceNext's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
