While Oanda and Forex.com are very similar in that they are both forex/CFD brokers, the two can differ greatly when it comes to the details.

Forex.com has much higher fees than Oanda and its desktop platform is mediocre. Fees are especially high for CFDs trades, not so much forex. Forex.com's parent company is listed on a stock exchange, which is a good sign for its safety.
