Verdict

The call

WordPress and Zeely both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 76% of Zeely's written reviews are positive against 37% of WordPress's. Zeely also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and chart position (#56 vs unranked). WordPress's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 24). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
