# TCP vs UTM Remote Virtual Machines

The clearest difference is rating: UTM Remote Virtual Machines at 3.7 against TCP's 3.0. UTM Remote Virtual Machines also leads on ratings volume (51 vs 6) and device support (4 vs 2). TCP's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 38%) and iOS requirement (7.1 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

UTM Remote Virtual Machines holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UTM Remote Virtual Machines has 51 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of TCP's written reviews are positive against 38% of UTM Remote Virtual Machines's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
