What's the top 3 push notification service providers?

Hi Daniel,
Since this question isn't specifically related to Kinvey, I'm tagging it under non-Kinvey questions. Our use of push providers varies by SDK. For iOS we use Urban Airship, for Android we use Google Cloud Messaging (GCM). You can read up on these in the Dev Center: http://devcenter.kinvey.com/ios/guides/push and http://devcenter.kinvey.com/android/guides/push

What are the pros and cons of each
Why would I use the Google and/or Apple ones if I have an app on both platforms? Besides the fact that these services are free of charge, I need to maintain both, instead of going with one single provider that will do the maintenance for me. right?
