Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Dropbox EMM at fortnightly against Box Events's every 5 months. Dropbox EMM also leads on ratings volume (380 vs 5). Box Events's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
