Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Well Maintenance at free against Pushover Notifications's free with in-app purchases. Pushover Notifications's advantage is ratings volume (4K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
