Usually, people compare cscript with wscript, the difference is explained here:

Difference between wscript and cscript

"Call" calls one batch program from another without stopping the parent batch program.

CALL command vs. START with /WAIT option

In Windows, if you are running an automated program written in several batch scripts, you'll want to use "call".
