As an iOS Developer who cant do any server side coding, this service is a boon!

I visited both Kinvey and Parse and the one major difference i can see straightaway is that Parse allows schema less development. From their website:

"For example, you do not need to specify any schemas before pushing data to us. Our data API simply uses a schema-less JSON-like format."

While Kinvey lists "model your data and file requirements" as the first step to using their service.

Of course, both the services are still in beta and post-beta pricing will also be a major differentiator going ahead.
