Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Roster Blast at none against Rosterlytic's shown. Roster Blast also leads on ratings volume (133 vs 13) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Rosterlytic's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 87%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
