Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Salesforce at fortnightly against ELTON Scanner's every 3 months. Salesforce also leads on ratings volume (357K vs 1) and chart position (#141 vs unranked). ELTON Scanner's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
