The clearest difference is update cadence: Edugence at every 4 weeks against NWEA Secure Testing's every 8 months. Edugence also leads on rating (1.8 vs 1.5) and device support (3 vs 1). NWEA Secure Testing's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
