Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: BNP Paribas Cube at free against FactSet's subscription. BNP Paribas Cube also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). FactSet's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (371 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
