Pre-booked private transferorSilja Line ferry to Helsinki, by SL train, metro and bus 76?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Pre-booked private transfer reaches Stockholm City and the central station above it; the Silja Line ferry to Helsinki, by SL train, metro and bus 76 does not. This goes on by overnight ferry to Helsinki, landing at the Olympia Terminal, which Tallink Silja puts within walking distance of the Esplanade; it does not reach Helsinki Airport.

The Pre-booked private transfer is quicker: 1 h 16 against 18 h 56.

Pre-booked private transfer: Runs all night. Silja Line ferry to Helsinki, by SL train, metro and bus 76: hours not recorded.
