I guess the difference between the Zero and CM3 are a bit more of a personal preference.
The Zero is cheaper, but you have to bring your own Raspberry Pi Zero (or Zero W) to build it.
The CM3 is more expensive, but it's a faster CPU and it our kit comes with the Raspberry Pi CM3 already connected.
The software compatibility should be the same. In fact, since the CM3 is the same CPU as the Raspberry Pi 3, it should support more systems (just based on increased processing power). The user experience should be the same as far as ease of use.
The Freeplay CM3 will also maybe offer a bit more future expansion options. We are building some things onto the main board that could allow people (maybe us) to make some expansion boards. We will just have to see what the future brings for that.
If you're okay with soldering, and you want something a bit cheaper, then go with the Freeplay Zero. (We're also working on a solderless option for the Freeplay Zero.)
If you don't want to worry about soldering or buying your own Raspberry Pi and you want a bit faster processor, then go with the Freeplay CM3.
