Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Vista Connect at 100% against ScreenLogic Connect's 21%. Vista Connect also leads on rating (4.0 vs 2.1). ScreenLogic Connect's advantage is ratings volume (360 vs 4) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
