Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Fleet Hardware Installer at 100% against Work Classic's 29%. Fleet Hardware Installer also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.9) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.6). Work Classic's advantage is ratings volume (46 vs 6) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
