They're not so easy to compare due to being different
approaches with evolving development in each.
Here's a partial family tree, newest generally towards the bottom...
https://getmonero.org/ - Monero XMR
http://zerocoin.org/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zerocoin
https://smartcash.cc/ - Smartcash SMART
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=846471 - Zerovert ZER
https://zcoin.io/ - Zcoin XZC
http://zerocash-project.org/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zerocash
https://credacash.com/compare - Credacash, license issues
https://z.cash/ - Zcash ZEC
http://zclassic.org/ - Zclassic ZCL
https://zensystem.io/ - Zencash ZEN
As usual, a few years / generations out will see new
coins emerge that combine both old and new elements
into more capable, private, anonymous, overlay transport,
txrate, resistant, encrypted, trust less / mitigated setup,
mixed, ringed, whatever, etc solutions.
And exchanges, whether 'git clone and host on darknets', or
fully distributed (blockchain / p2p), and whether funds-on/off-exchange,
are complete greenfield and a highly needed ecosystem part
that's still missing.
Some early examples...
