Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: ZenDen Toolkit at free with in-app purchases against Trouble Tree's subscription. ZenDen Toolkit also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Trouble Tree's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (4 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
