Is Solfala an alternative to Complete Music Reading Trainer?

Yes, for treble and bass clef. Both are one-time purchases and both listen to a real instrument. Solfala is built around songs and runs instead of drills, and runs in the browser.

Which one is better for guitar?

Both work. Solfala has a guitar mode that reads treble clef an octave above sounding pitch, as guitar music is written, and hears a real guitar through the microphone.

Can I try both for free?

Yes. Solfala's demo plays in your browser with no account. Complete Music Reading Trainer lets you try the first chapter of each clef before buying.
