# SSH Client vs MobileFrame Online Help

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MobileFrame Online Help at none against SSH Client's 3. SSH Client's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 2) and chart position (#27 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SSH Client sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. MobileFrame Online Help asks for nothing beyond the download.

MobileFrame Online Help holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SSH Client has 1.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
