Which should you choose?

Steam: PC gaming platform with store, community, workshop and remote play.

Overwolf: Platform for in-game apps, overlays and mods.

The best way to decide is to run the same week of real work through both — most offer a free plan or trial — and compare how long tasks take, what your team prefers, and the total cost for your number of users including renewal pricing.
