Yes, Waze is a religion in Israel, perhaps because traffic conditions there are so unexpected. While on vacation there recently I downloaded the app, but found it unusable. The amount of noise in the UI - alerts, ads, IMs from other drivers - is unbearable.
I find that Google Maps is simple, clean, and quite accurate in predicting time to destination. Plus, now it displays traffic jams and incidents signaled by Waze users.
Ads are also a religion in Israel. But the last place I want to see them is when I'm driving. Turn right here to save 5 shekels on some lotion. No thanks, and now I've missed my turn...
