I've tried both. The problem for me was that CP didn't allow you to schedule from the planner view.

In which case, I bow to your deeper knowledge. I must say that we all find Aworka pretty simple to use.  One or two niggles but when I considered a swap I just thought we'd be swapping one set of minor issues for a different one.  Short of having software specifically written for exactly how you run your business there are always going to be compromises.

To me the only real problem with Aworka is the long winded way to move jobs between rounds. Chris says he's working on an update that will allow movement and planning of all rounds from the same planner screen. This will make a big difference.

As regards running software on a Mac, there are solutions out there to let you run Windows software on a Mac.   However, given that the best ones involve a cost whereas a refurbished PC can cost well under £100, that might be a better solution - you only need a PC capable of running an internet browser so the spec is pretty irrelevant.  It also allows you to separate completely work computer use from home use.

I've tried both, in fact I've had two free trails with Cleaner planner and used it for 2 months before going back to Aworka.
Both well supported, both do the same with Aworka now intergrating GoCardless and PayPal .
Aworka is £100 pa paid in Advance where Cleaner planner is £25 a month.
A lot of members here very vocally support Cleaner planner but as you say I'm not sure how many have tried both.

I have tried all 3 and ended up staying with George as i found it the easiest to use.
I am not very good with software and find George incredibly simple. By far cheaper too.
