Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: pMD at 74% against Commure Pro's 10%. pMD also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (8K vs 12). Commure Pro's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
