I generally like Mapbox but I've had some problems with the quality of their geocoding and still would get better results from Google's geocoding. It was a pretty niche thing, though: mapbox doesn't have as many European postcodes, but Europeans in several countries don't really treat postcodes with much respect to begin with. In particular, mapbox has no Eircodes whatsoever.

The quality of OpenAddresses' geocoding (which, I'd imagine, Mapbox uses) seems to be a bit spotty here in the United States as well. Google's entire advantage here is the amount of resources they've poured into their data; nobody else has been able to match it so far. EDIT: After doing a bit of poking and prodding, it does seem to be a lot better than it used to be.
