Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: UniFi at 4.7 against Google Admin's 1.7. UniFi also leads on review sentiment (47% vs 9%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 8 months). Google Admin's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
