alphavantage.co and stooq.com also have EOD price data. Intraday price and fundamental data have different sources.

Wisesheets looks interesting. Sounds similar to some other start-ups that are getting the data directly from the annual reports, but coverage might be spotty (some tickers not covered). All the data vendors seem to have some mistakes in their data, and so it's a question of how many mistakes.
