I like the fact that the map visualizations 1) rely on zip code / location data to populate more accurately than Power BI's own mapping service, 2) have more variations (e.g. highlight states, create bubbles for cities based on sample size / population size, and 3) provide more control for customizing (e.g. bubble size and color can be customized to make the visualization look the way you want it to).

The one very annoying feature is that map visualizations made via ArcGIS generally zoom out once you leave the Power BI tab in which you created them. This means that you have to zoom back in every single time you revisit the tab. For example, I created multiple map visualizations showing customer concentrations by metro in the US; however, the tabs in which I created them zoom out to show the entire world, which means that I have to zoom back in to the US every time I visit each tab. Please fix this! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ESRI maps are really good. With a update of PBI a few months ago it has also gotten much faster at rendering. The visualization looks very good and it is simple to set up several layers of drilling. It's not often that we have a need to use maps in our data, but when we do, this makes it easy. Custumers really like maps and often look for a way to include them, even if they aren't the best at telling a specific story. Fortunately development time is not long, making it easy to assess effectiveness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have noticed that you must be careful as to how you design the data. This is true with most BI visuals but especially with maps because of the amount of rendering of layers they do. At times I have experienced some long load times. Our current data set is well summarized and we have removed unneeded data making load times almost immediate.

It's a great break through to bring the mapping aspects inside the PowerBI domain. It's very easy to quickly add this visualization which adds a new layer of depth to the analysis and understanding Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Improved ability to use different base maps would be great and there could be better support for more complex geometry types. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still a few updates away from being perfect. I haven't found the best luck with support. Long wait times Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Whenever using a location filter in your data, this tool adds a lot of value by displaying the data points over the demographic visual.
