Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: DeskBean at none against ResX's shown. ResX's advantage is chart position (#9 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ResX sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and DeskBean sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
