Excellent plugin and support
The plugin itself is incredible and ticks all the boxes for what I need for a maps plugin – there are lots of options for customisation and the integration with ACF particularly makes it incredibly versatile. And I've had some great support from Matthew Lau. No issues with the plugin but just me trying to do things which aren't (yet) fully supported. Matthew has given me bespoke support with some little code snippets. Excellent service!

Solid
This is a solid map plugin. Easy to set up and manage. I love that I can use my own marker. I haven't had many issues, but when I have, their support team, specifically Dylan and Matthew, were quick to help! It should also be noted, that the issues I experienced were of my own creation, and not a reflection on their plugin.
