Verdict

The call

Tableau Mobile and Anaplan both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Anaplan's written reviews are positive against 26% of Tableau Mobile's. Anaplan also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). Tableau Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 21). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
