ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Grafana holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grafana has 63 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Prometheus Mobile for Maximo's written reviews are positive against 67% of Grafana's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Prometheus Mobile for Maximo ships an update every 5 months, Grafana fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
