I never been to Nekter but I have to say it's not nearly as good as Thrive. I got the Sun Devil and it was very dull. There was way to much smoothie that had no flavor and hardly any toppings. The only toppings included were banana, strawberry and berries and barely any granola. It was not filling. It needs more of a kick. Thrive is better because they add honey and they have way more options.
