Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
CTERA holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 6 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of HCP Anywhere's written reviews are positive against 50% of CTERA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
HCP Anywhere ships an update every 6 weeks, CTERA every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
