In their own words

3DMark

3DMark benchmarks gaming performance across PCs, Macs, notebooks, tablets, and smartphones. It scans hardware and recommends a suitable benchmark, then lets users compare scores with systems using the same CPU and GPU combination. Tests include ray tracing, DirectX and Vulkan graphics benchmarks, CPU Profile tests, and GPU stress tests. Charts show CPU and GPU temperatures, clock speeds, and frame-rate changes during a run. The software also estimates frame rates for a selection of popular games to connect benchmark results with game performance. A separately purchased Storage Benchmark DLC measures SSD and other storage hardware using gaming activities. Free editions are listed for iOS and Android. The Windows and macOS edition is a one-time purchase listed at $34.99; a Windows edition sold through Epic Games is also listed at $34.99 as a one-time purchase. Enterprise features include command-line automation, offline results, XML export, commercial-use licensing, Testdriver compatibility, and priority email and phone support. The minimum listed Windows requirement is Windows 10 64-bit, a dual-core 1.8 GHz CPU, 4 GB memory, and DirectX 11 graphics.

GameBench

GameBench provides tools for measuring, analyzing and optimizing game performance. With GameBench Pro, users connect an Android or iOS device, choose a game, measure its performance and upload results to a dashboard. GameBench Injector adds instrumentation to APK or IPA builds without requiring developer code changes. Metrics include frame rate, CPU, GPU, memory, power, battery, network usage, screenshots and thermal throttling. The web dashboard stores and visualizes sessions, trends, apps, devices and collections for comparison. Its API supports token creation, session searches, session details and time-series metrics; Jira integration can create engineering tickets linked to sessions. Dashboard accounts support SSO and LDAP, and companies can require multi-factor authentication. Enterprise customers can run a private dashboard on their own infrastructure. The native SDK supports Android 5.0+, 64-bit iOS 10.0+ and tvOS 10.0+, for hardware platforms only. Pricing is on request, and a 28-day trial is listed. The trial includes 30 minutes of Pro testing, unlimited sessions and SDK sessions, full API access, and all metrics and analytics.
