Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: RIT Mobile at 5.0 against CampusGroups's 4.4. RIT Mobile also leads on review sentiment (42% vs 13%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). CampusGroups's advantage is ratings volume (5.3K vs 4) and chart position (#126 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
