Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Examzify at free with in-app purchases against Azimuth Prep's subscription. Examzify also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 6). Azimuth Prep's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
