Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Aldo's Toolkit at none against ServerCat's 3. Aldo's Toolkit also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). ServerCat's advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 1) and chart position (#57 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
