ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Network Utilities & Analyzer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Network Utilities & Analyzer has 457 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Network Utilities & Analyzer's written reviews are positive against 100% of MY BPU's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Network Utilities & Analyzer ships an update every 6 weeks, MY BPU every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
