Factual API vs Google Places API in terms of Distance Matrix (distance and time)

I need enough accuracy in my app but Google Places seems to be poorly accurate filtering by category. So I'm considering migrating to Factual API. Do you guys have used it? What do you think about its accuracy?

In the other hand, I NEED to know the distance to a place and the estimated travel time. I'm getting this info with Google Distance Matrix API, but I don't know if Factual has this functionality or not.

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • I used Factual's api for one app and the result is worse than Google Place's, at least for the super-market/grocery category
