# PortX vs Docker Server Admin

The clearest difference is rating: Docker Server Admin at 4.7 against PortX's 3.7. Docker Server Admin also leads on chart position (#179 vs unranked) and ratings volume (144 vs 19). PortX's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Docker Server Admin sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per year. PortX asks for nothing beyond the download.

Docker Server Admin holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Docker Server Admin has 144 ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of PortX's written reviews are positive against 64% of Docker Server Admin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PortX ships an update monthly, Docker Server Admin every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
