Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Omnilert holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 38 and 14 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of meterEZ's written reviews are positive against 25% of Omnilert's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
