They are not the same, but they are not very difficult.
Hospotfx is easier than mbtrading (platform navigator) but now efxgroup (who joined mbtrading) has a new "platform" by web in a beta version and mbtrading´s clients can use it too with the username and password. In fact this type of trading will become part of mbtrading in the future too.
The problem is that you only can use it with Windows o.s. and explorer (with dukascopy you use it by web too and in any operative systems, I use it with my mac). Mbtrading says that they will try to do the best for all operative systems in the future.
Hotspotfx has a platform "to download", it´s different from traders like you and me (lol) than institutionals (hotspotfxi.com) but very easy to use both. Try by yourself Alan
