Verdict
The clearest difference is price: PEC Utility Management at Free against mDNS Utility's $0.99. PEC Utility Management also leads on rating (4.0 vs 1.6). mDNS Utility's advantage is review sentiment (17% vs 0%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

PEC Utility Management is free to download; mDNS Utility costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
PEC Utility Management holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 1.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: mDNS Utility has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of mDNS Utility's written reviews are positive against 0% of PEC Utility Management's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
mDNS Utility ships an update fortnightly, PEC Utility Management every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 16, 2026 and August 24, 2026 respectively.
