Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Coolrite EMS at 5.0 against MQTTAnalyzer's 4.5. Coolrite EMS also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 18.0). MQTTAnalyzer's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 31 months) and ratings volume (22 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
