For alternatives to Google Play, Google "alternatives to google play"
Some downsides to not using Google Play is that there is a greater chance of downloading apps that might be malicious or not the most current version. One upside is that there are some nice apps not approved by Google and not in Google Play.
Your tablet might not have Google Play because the manufacturer didn't meet/agree to Google's requirements or pay for the license to install Google Play and Google apps.
