Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ServerBox at 4.9 against Palm's 4.3. ServerBox also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 50%) and ratings volume (91 vs 6). Palm's advantage is update cadence (daily vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
