In short
GeForce NOW: GeForce NOW lets players stream games tied to supported stores without downloading updates on their device. Compare the plan's monthly playtime and resolution limits with how you want to play.
Pleio: Pleio provides a catalog-based cloud gaming subscription with broad device compatibility and 1080p streaming. The one-device limit, required provider eligibility, and inability to stream personally owned games define how the service can be used.
