Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mutualink Edge at 4.3 against IBM MaaS360's 1.9. Mutualink Edge also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). IBM MaaS360's advantage is ratings volume (429 vs 6) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Mutualink Edge holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IBM MaaS360 has 429 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of IBM MaaS360's written reviews are positive against 0% of Mutualink Edge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
IBM MaaS360 ships an update every 6 weeks, Mutualink Edge every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
