Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CaseNetwork at 5.0 against ABS SCORE's 1.5. CaseNetwork also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). ABS SCORE's advantage is ratings volume (23 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
