Paperless Post and Frontyard both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Frontyard's written reviews are positive against 34% of Paperless Post's. Paperless Post's advantage is ratings volume (128K vs 3) and chart position (#142 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
