Not able to export images from Maps and add labels. Labelling helps to identify or mark the locations on the maps, which is a key feature missing in LocationIQ. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If your main objective is to convert street addresses to geographic coordinates and vice versa, LocationIQ solves this purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
