Technical differences
Google offers a great geocoder, no doubt. But it's one of many, many different geospatial services they provide. Their APIs get complicated fast.
We focus purely on geocoding.
Our API is simpler and focused, and we have SDKs for 30+ languages to make the transition straight-forward.
