# Easy Zip vs File Managers

The clearest difference is rating: File Managers at 4.4 against Easy Zip's 1.2. File Managers also leads on ratings volume (346 vs 14) and review sentiment (23% vs 13%). Easy Zip's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Easy Zip sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and File Managers sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

File Managers holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: File Managers has 346 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 13% of Easy Zip's written reviews are positive against 23% of File Managers's.
