Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Sociocs at 100% against TextMagic's 31%. Sociocs also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). TextMagic's advantage is ratings volume (267 vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
