ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Encore holds the better App Store score, 3.4 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ivanti Mobile@Work™ Client has 501 ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Ivanti Mobile@Work™ Client's written reviews are positive against 11% of Encore's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
