Depends what you're after really. I'm impressed by GraphHopper's job in suggesting a foot route between Southampton and the village I spent my teenage years, 60km away - it actually suggests a route very close to the one I would have chosen myself. A bit more roads than ideal, but it is impressive.

If you ask me, they are all in their infancy. Non of these routing services even route right. In a turn restriction the "via" role can be a way. Neither OSRM, ORS or GraphHopper knows how to restrict that, and that's IMHO one of the crucial parts of a routing engine.
When one of them starts routing right, than we can talk about picking a winner service. Right now only MapQuest knows how to route.

Why do OSRM & OpenRoutingService compete against each other instead of joining resources and combining efforts to make the best routing service out there? Am i missing something? I know it's nice to have different services for different uses but this doesn't seem like a good use of resources at all. I may be the only one with this opinion, but this has bug me for awhile.
