      Depending on location probably, my experience is that OSM is much better in Europe than gmaps.

      The only issue is missing traffic but that can not happen without tracking anyway.

      Most of the time here it isn't even that the base data is bad, it's just that UIs behave horribly. Especially stuff like searching for things.

      Then there's also that real-time data is just.. missing. No info on live traffic or even longer term stuff like construction.
