# NetData vs NAS Pro

The clearest difference is rating: NAS Pro at 4.3 against NetData's 3.6. NAS Pro also leads on ratings volume (174 vs 17). NetData's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NAS Pro sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month. NetData asks for nothing beyond the download.

NAS Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NAS Pro has 174 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of NetData's written reviews are positive against 58% of NAS Pro's.

NetData ships an update every 9 days, NAS Pro every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
