# Docker Manager GUI vs ProxMate Backup

The clearest difference is rating: ProxMate Backup at 5.0 against Docker Manager GUI's 4.3. ProxMate Backup also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 62%) and chart position (#76 vs unranked). Docker Manager GUI's advantage is ratings volume (37 vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Docker Manager GUI sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and ProxMate Backup sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ProxMate Backup holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Docker Manager GUI has 37 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 62% of Docker Manager GUI's written reviews are positive against 100% of ProxMate Backup's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
