I would say that Songsterr has better quality annotations on average. Back in the day there was a site called power tab archive that was doing a Wikipedia style approach: ultimate guitar but with peer review. It was awesome but shut down by RIAA
Unfortunately, unless the producers or creators of the song release a full sheet of the music, you would have to rely on yours or other's ears to accurately map out the chords used. I am sure there are softwares that try to simplify this.
But in the end, you would still be relying on others. I recommend training your own ear to this capacity as it can be quite an awesome hobby to figure out songs on your own.
If you're not great with pitch like me, you can use sonic visualizer and annotate the spectogram is my best bet if you want a more definitive answer. But depending on the mix, it isn't always as easy.
