What's the difference between this product and just a plain folate product?

This product is methylated. That means that those individuals who have the genetic defect MTHFR will be able to use the folate and other B vitamins. These will be absorbed into their systems to keep homocysteine levels low among other benefits. If you don't have that defect, you do not need the methylation. Some of us will use it as long as we live.
