Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Network Debugger at none against Push Notification's 1. Network Debugger also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). Push Notification's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
