How does eval work ?

I have two exactly same positions on 2 different accounts, (see the screenshot) and the engine doesn't recommend the same move. 
So does the evaluation depends on your rating ? What's the point ? Which one do I have to trust ?

I wouldn´t worry about it happy.png we´re talking about a few hundreths of a pawn plus or minus. The engine starts from two almost identical but different positions, so maybe it hadn´t arrived at its definitive result yet.

Nc6 and Bd7 are so similar evaluation-wise that the engine may have alternating recommendations, however it shouldn't matter too much.
