ANSWER:

Buddhism is a polytheistic religion and its main goal is to gain enlightenment. Jainism is also a polytheistic religion and its goals are based on non-violence and liberation the soul.
Jainism Says: Respect all living things. Attain liberation by avoiding and shedding of bad karma which is the cause of rebirths and all sufferings.

Goal of Philosophy: Buddhism is not a philosophy. It is the practical teachings of the Buddha and its goal is 'Nirvana'. Jainism is a way of life, adhere to teachings of Tirthankars, respect all life forms and end goal is to achieve Nirvana.

Why New Religions?

The society was angry over the ritualistic practices of the post Vedic period which were based upon superstition and exaggeration and held Brahminical dominance accountable for the mayhem.

The languages spoken by the masses such as Prakrit and Pali started getting prominence over Sanskrit, a language which was limited to priestly and aristocratic class.
In fact, Buddhism and Jainism movements were started to reform the Hinduism.
