Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Samsara Fleet at none against MECP Certification's 11. Samsara Fleet also leads on ratings volume (1.2K vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). MECP Certification's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
