It provides complete monitoring and control of all connected onboard devices with custom status notifications and alerts for any connected component, such as battery faults, engine issues, vessel movement and water leaks.

The LINKCloud stores historic logs which can be recalled as needed, enables the sharing of documentation, and offers direct messaging between all parties involved in the vessel.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LINK at none against DVB's 1. LINK also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). DVB's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
