The clearest difference is rating: Network Toolbox Net security at 4.6 against OptiTools Mobile's 3.5. Network Toolbox Net security also leads on ratings volume (3.3K vs 2).

Both are free to download. Network Toolbox Net security sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. OptiTools Mobile asks for nothing beyond the download.

Network Toolbox Net security holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.5.
