Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mendix at 71% against Microsoft Azure's 29%. Mendix also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.0). Microsoft Azure's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 3.4) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Microsoft Azure holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microsoft Azure has 2.8K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Mendix's written reviews are positive against 29% of Microsoft Azure's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mendix ships an update every 2 months, Microsoft Azure every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
