Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Microkeeper at 85% against Workforce.com's 39%. Microkeeper also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Workforce.com's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (3K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
