Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Basement Watchdog CONNECT® at none against Proteus Sensor Cloud's shown. Basement Watchdog CONNECT® also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). Proteus Sensor Cloud's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 15 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
