What Merchants Think

The "Simple Map" app has received largely positive feedback from merchants for its ease of use and aesthetic appeal. Users appreciate its ability to convert customer leads through attractive map displays on websites. However, there are a few limitations noted by users, particularly in terms of functionality and customization options.

Key Strengths

  • Highly customizable maps that enhance website aesthetics.
  • Easy installation process with minimal configuration required.
  • Provides social proof by displaying customer orders geographically.
  • Excellent customer support, with quick responses from developers.
  • Effective in converting leads into customers through attractive displays.

Common Concerns

  • Limited to displaying up to 500 orders, which some find restrictive.
  • Only supports maps of the US, Canada, and the World; lacks regional maps for other continents like Europe.
  • Occasional issues with map updates and loading, despite reaching out to support.
  • Only one map can be created per website, which limits flexibility for businesses covering multiple regions.

Final Thoughts

The "Simple Map" app is well-regarded among users for its ease of use and ability to visually enhance websites and build customer trust. Despite some technical and customization limitations, the app is a valuable tool for businesses looking to integrate a geographic representation of their customer base. The responsive developer support helps mitigate some of these issues, making it a recommendable choice for those seeking a simple yet effective mapping solution.

My map hasn't updated since the day I installed it years ago. Tried to contact developer many times with issue but never resolved. Meh, for free it looks pretty so I can't complain to much. Update 03/15/2025 - I changed the max value from 500 to 499 and my map data reloaded with current information. Woo-Hoo!

Perhaps the best application if you need to show worldwide orders to your customers , good Map customization, it's a pity only 500 orders limited, but I hope these guys will upgrade it soon ... Regards, Uri Ponoma https://ponomasteel.com/pages/reviews

I love this app! It automatically creates a beautiful display on my website and creates social proof that helps convert leads into customers.

This is a great plug-in that does exactly what it says and is easy to configure and implement while still providing many advanced options for those who are comfortable getting into the nitty gritty. The free version is a great value considering the minimal branding that you accept for it to be free. And the support is fantastic, my map had a small hiccup and the developer replied very quickly and actually modified the plug-in itself to deal with my situation (and others like it going forward) all in one day--truly amazing support for a 'customer' using the free version. Highly recommended.

Really good looking map, but it has a few drawbacks: - One can only choose US map, Canada map, or World map. Where is Europe, or the other continents? - It can only show up to the last 250 sales locations. - One can only create 1 map for the entire website (it would be nicer to be able to choose let's say, 1 US map + 1 Europe map, instead of just the world map, that would look overly empty, as we don't ship to other locations.

This is awesome, and can be customized, developer support is also top notch. The map is very easy to install on any page with just one line of code. You can see an example of how we used custom map icons to fit our products: https://www.g-wagenaccessories.com/pages/shipping-returns

Fantastic app! I needed an app to display my stockists as a map locator and though when I downloaded the app this was not functional in Canada, after a quick email to Chris, he had it up and running in no time. The support this app offers is above and beyond, and the app itself is simple and effective. Thanks, team!

Great app. I have it on our about-us page as well as the cart -- builds social proof, etc... Developer was fast to respond to a technical question. It works as represented. Since the map is rendered as svg, it is super fast and doesn't hurt page-load speed. 5 stars.

Just what I needed. A simple world map showing store locations. Excellent, speedy support from Chris.
