What is the difference between these? (besides one being free)

Most of the useful functionality is absent from the free version. The free version is a component that developers can build their products around, which means it is a pre-requisite for many products. That's its only use.

The paid version of FSUIPC gives you all kinds of advanced programming and configuration features for your sim, notably axis and button programming, saved profiles for specific aircraft, Lua scripting and probably a lot more. There are extensive documents available (for free) that describe all the features. The user manual has a section on the precise differences between the free and paid versions.

Thanks for the explanation. Where do I find the documents that describe all the features?

They come with the product, which is available for download from the second link you provided. You only pay if you go on to register it, which you do by purchasing a licence from the first link.
