Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Microsoft 365 Admin at none against SMS to Email Forwarder's 12. Microsoft 365 Admin also leads on ratings volume (5.8K vs 6) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). SMS to Email Forwarder's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and review sentiment (100% vs 78%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Microsoft 365 Admin's written reviews are positive against 100% of SMS to Email Forwarder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
