Map Compare shows you different maps from OpenStreetMap, Google, and others side by side. Use the drop down menus over the maps to choose the map type for each map. You can move and zoom any map as usual and the other map will follow. Hold down the shift key and move the mouse to zoom in to that area. You can save the link named Permalink to always return to this page with the same map types and position.
You can use one of the pre-configured map profiles:

Map Compare has a plugin system to integrate map configuration from other services as osmlab. Due the high number of maps (> 600) these are not enabled by default. You can filter the maps by id or name, or show them all in the menu. Here are some example links:
