Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: GDPR Resource Center at every 4 months against Chemdata's every 19 months. GDPR Resource Center also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). Chemdata's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 50%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
