Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: NetStatus Helper at every 5 months against Easy Compressor's every 47 months. Easy Compressor's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
