Osmand is a complete toolbox and offers many more features. Osmand is also only partially open source. Some bits are under CC Non-Commercial, so derivatives must first replace those bits to be fully FOSS compliant.

Organic Maps is more focused. Fewer features but also easier to use. I'm not aware of any tricks like CC NC bits to make life harder for derivatives.
