Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: EviSmart Comm at none against Dental Update's 1. EviSmart Comm also leads on update cadence (every 8 months vs every 33 months). Dental Update's advantage is iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
