# MIPC vs Security Home

The clearest difference is rating: Security Home at 4.3 against MIPC's 2.1. Security Home also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 2.2K). MIPC's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MIPC sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Security Home sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Security Home holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.2K and 11K respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 16% of MIPC's written reviews are positive against 19% of Security Home's.
