Verdict
The clearest difference is price: SYSTEM UTIL Dashboard at $0.99 against HAM's $14.99. SYSTEM UTIL Dashboard also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (828 vs 7). HAM's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
