ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iCMOB holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paramont CMS has 88 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of iCMOB's written reviews are positive against 26% of Paramont CMS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iCMOB ships an update every 6 months, Paramont CMS every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on June 9, 2026 and August 11, 2026 respectively.
