Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Open Charge Map at 5.0 against EV's 4.4. Open Charge Map also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and review sentiment (18% vs 0%). EV's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 1) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
