Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ad It Up at 4.7 against Dining Advantage's 1.3. Ad It Up also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 19 months) and ratings volume (3.4K vs 66). Dining Advantage's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
