Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chorilo at none against Classroom Mate's 1. Chorilo also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). Classroom Mate's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
