Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Montebello Academy at none against ClassDojo's 10. Montebello Academy also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). ClassDojo's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months) and chart position (#5 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
