# CrewBid vs Great Work™

The clearest difference is rating: Great Work™ at 4.6 against CrewBid's 3.9. Great Work™ also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ratings volume (3K vs 227). CrewBid's advantage is review sentiment (51% vs 17%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CrewBid sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Great Work™ asks for nothing beyond the download.

Great Work™ holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Great Work™ has 3K ratings behind it against 227, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of CrewBid's written reviews are positive against 17% of Great Work™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

CrewBid ships an update fortnightly, Great Work™ every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and August 3, 2026 respectively.
