Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Microsoft Azure at 4.8 against InstaShare's 2.0. Microsoft Azure also leads on ratings volume (2.8K vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). InstaShare's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
