Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Cvent LeadCapture holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cvent LeadCapture has 369 ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of SWAP by Maritz's written reviews are positive against 63% of Cvent LeadCapture's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
