Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
VacronViewer holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 1.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 57 and 13 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of TapCMS's written reviews are positive against 18% of VacronViewer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
