Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Winki Fire Island at none against OpenTable's shown. Winki Fire Island also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). OpenTable's advantage is ratings volume (5.7M vs 1) and chart position (#27 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
