Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ArcSite at 4.7 against Measure Tools's 2.4. ArcSite also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (9.3K vs 5). Measure Tools's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
