Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: I at 5.0 against OTG Cloud by Monster Digital's 2.4. I also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 16%) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks). OTG Cloud by Monster Digital's advantage is ratings volume (60 vs 5) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 8.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
