Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ConnectED at none against Clockout's 18. ConnectED also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Clockout's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (8K vs 1). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
