Competotors (only in Russian) are probki.net (which has a freeware windows version, but far not all cities are covered), maps.yandex.ru (not sure about points of interest) and available in English maps.google.com and earth.google.com Paper roadmaps are available at any gas-station shop, in most bookstores and on railway stations. 99.9% are Russian only. You will have to look them through to find out whether they have enough details (look for driving maps "Карта Дорог" since they are adapted for car drivers and have more car-related marks).
