As far as i know Google beats Yandex in search (readed about this here http://habrahabr.ru/post/173351/ http://habrahabr.ru/post/173351/). But Yandex got more detailed maps (google missed some objects / buildings). Yandex got Taxi app, public transport app, navigator, metrika (google analytics copy) and etc, etc, etc. For me as developer - yandex provides much better api documentation and examples.
But I can't understand - how can they force monopoly protest, being monopolists itself? Example - Only Yandex.Transport got API for public data (bus stops, Position Tracking) in Moscow. I am sure, that Google can protest them back. How Yandex had the nerve for this? Nothing personal, business only?
P.S. All above is about Russia context. In USA I don't know which maps are more detailed.

- bobuk 12y agoYandex.Transport bought an access to API for positioning, but it's not exclusive. Everyone, including you can buy this access too, it's not very expensive.
- Oleg2tor 12y agoSo, where I can get those API? Can you get me link or something?

- guard-of-terra 12y ago"Only Yandex.Transport got API for public data (bus stops, Position Tracking) in Moscow" Moscow officials state that it is not the case, they're not limiting their APIs to Yandex only. Yandex is merely the first one to gain access.
