Google says its great offering Google Maps and its associated API tramples all the competition hands down. The article takes a few names - Kayak, Ace Hardware and Trulia
Thumping on its own back, Google has now launched Google Enterprise Maps API Premier.

More bang for more bucks ?
Google says-
“Google Maps API Premier returns fast, relevant results to your customers - even on the busiest of websites. You benefit from your customers’ familiarity with Google Maps, plus the worldwide scalability and high interactivity of the mapping API. Google Maps API Premier includes everything you love about Google Maps”
But here comes the main part -
The premier version offers -
* Greater capacity for high traffic websites
* Business-friendly terms and conditions
* Support and service options
* Control over advertisements within the maps
Google is hoping now that - “Retail stores can use this to direct customers to store locations, real estate firms can use this to help customers locate properties that fit their needs, and travel companies can use this to help clients make decisions about upcoming vacations.”
No pricing details ofcourse just a contact link on its main page.
