Bing is the second best you'll get.

I'm sure there's another company out there that does it better than one of the largest, most technologically advanced companies in the world, that has some of the smartest people in the world working for them.
When you find them let me know.

Bing (Microsoft) has comparable maps. LINK

Where are these areas you speak of? When we use images in my job we always go Google Maps because Bing is usually at least a year behind in images
Typically rural East Texas. Like I said, I check Google Earth/Google Maps first. Then I'll check Bing if Google isn't current. Every once and a while Bing will have the better map.
If neither works I'll download aerials and load them in ArcGIS, but that can be such a pain.

The new google maps has reduced the clutter and performance problems it was initially plagued with so the OP may like it now once he gets used to it.
I think what the other poster is referring to with Bing is the "birds eye view" which can be pretty good.

When I'm stalking someone I always check both street view and all 4 birds eye angles.
