# NetClient CS vs Timerack

The clearest difference is rating: Timerack at 2.5 against NetClient CS's 1.9. Timerack also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months). NetClient CS's advantage is monetization model (free vs subscription) and ratings volume (318 vs 24). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Timerack holds the better App Store score, 2.5 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NetClient CS has 318 ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of NetClient CS's written reviews are positive against 0% of Timerack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

NetClient CS ships an update every 5 months, Timerack every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
