Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Moly Workspace at none against Progress's 3. Moly Workspace also leads on ads (none vs shown). Progress's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 4 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
