Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Teaching Circle at 4.4 against BNU CMS's 1.3. Teaching Circle also leads on ratings volume (21 vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). BNU CMS's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 20). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
