Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: NextWise at free against FactSet's subscription. NextWise also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 19%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). FactSet's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 21 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
