I imagine that, on average, they have the best maps in areas where they are active. HERE may have better coverage overall. In areas with active communities, that OpenStreetMap is crowd sourced is probably more of a strength than a weakness. The issue for OSM is that there are lots of places where there aren't any active contributors, never mind a community.
