The RinkNet Press Room App provides line combinations plus in-game statistics and player information for scouts, managers and league officials who use RinkNet in their various roles. A companion to our flagship scouting and player information system, a single user can enter the lines for the game then all other users attending the game can access the same lines. A convenient display screen lets the scout reference the line combination as they watch the game, either live or on video. Users can see a live game sheet plus stat breakdowns for all players as well as other personal details. RinkNet Software, founded in 1998, is used by elite leagues and teams throughout the hockey industry. For more information about RinkNet visit our web site at www.RinkNet.com

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Press Room App at none against HockeySync's shown. Press Room App also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). HockeySync's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
