applications
Explanation:
Sono sinonimi, applicativi è una versione abbreviata di 'programmi applicativi', per differenza rispetto ai programmi di sistema, ma i due termini, applicazioni e (programmi) applicativi, sono sinonimi.

no difference


Explanation:
There is usually no difference between the two terms (applicativo is usually the adjective of applicazione). Are there any other clues in the text?

Explanation:
applicazione could also mean appliance - the actual device used for GIS.
I don't know if this applies in your context, but one could be the actual device and the other the software application.
