# Docker Server Admin vs K8Z

The clearest difference is update cadence: K8Z at fortnightly against Docker Server Admin's every 2 months. K8Z also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Docker Server Admin's advantage is ratings volume (144 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Docker Server Admin sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per year and K8Z sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

K8Z holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Docker Server Admin has 144 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Docker Server Admin ships an update every 2 months, K8Z fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
