Verdict

The call

Dreamehome and evcc.io both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 91% of evcc.io's written reviews are positive against 60% of Dreamehome's. Dreamehome's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
