Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: AMLINK Pro at 100% against Lorex Cloud's 8%. AMLINK Pro also leads on rating (2.3 vs 1.5) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months). Lorex Cloud's advantage is ratings volume (300 vs 7) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
