Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: KondZilla Beat Maker at 4.6 against Cross DJ's 4.0. KondZilla Beat Maker also leads on review sentiment (64% vs 49%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.4). Cross DJ's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
