Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: e at 4.8 against MitID's 1.2. e also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). MitID's advantage is ratings volume (200 vs 17). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
