Does Google Cloud Vision OCR API have better accuracy and performance than Tesseract OCR API

I have incorporated the Google Cloud Vision API into my Java application for OCR from complex formatted documents. One of my colleagues suggested using the "Tesseract API". Can anyone please give the difference between these two APIs. And it is better in terms of accuracy, or has some advantage over others .TIA

Tesseract is open source, free and can be run locally. But it also requires training and tweaking, and overall its acceptance rate is worse than cloud services from Google, Microsoft, and OCR.space. But it's best if you check it out online yourself with our own images:

Google Vision OCR is paid and better than tesseract, while tesseract is completely free and open source.
