Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Text Number at 4.7 against BellHub's 1.5. Text Number also leads on review sentiment (39% vs 0%) and ratings volume (12K vs 15). BellHub's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
