Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: DVMate at none against Coach Tactic Board's shown. DVMate also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Coach Tactic Board's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
