# Viewpoint Field Management™ vs Datto Workplace

The clearest difference is rating: Datto Workplace at 4.4 against Viewpoint Field Management™'s 2.7. Datto Workplace also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 29). Viewpoint Field Management™'s advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (23% vs 14%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Datto Workplace holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Datto Workplace has 1K ratings behind it against 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Viewpoint Field Management™'s written reviews are positive against 14% of Datto Workplace's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Viewpoint Field Management™ ships an update every 5 weeks, Datto Workplace every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
