The Installation didn't worked immediately. After the quick responce of the programmer he helped me to get things sorted out. Thank you very much.
1. The module had some interference from other modules or plugins. and
2. I had copied the wrong API key (It's a Google Map but not the Google Map Key you need !)
Thank you Serdar for your help in getting it working.

The application is suburb and was easy to install. The interface works perfectly with the website. I had an issue with one thing and the developer was quick to respond and was very helpful.
I suggest buying the pro version, its defiantly worth the money.
Thank again.

I suggest the better Pro version for only 10,- €! I´m using it for a while on my own site and it works and looks so great. Much better than the free version. But also the free version is a good tool.

I download the free extension with some problem but pro version is an excellent extension. Sell software over the Internet is too easy but it is the first time I find a technical support so fast and professional. Very good. Good job. Thanks.
I'm no programmer so fortunately this non-commercial version installed without a serious glitch. For a new offering it works well in default settings although the documentation needs better clarity on settings options. Nevertheless, I immediately went for the pro version to get extra options at a very reasonable price. Some fiddling with scale to match my template was the only brief struggle.Good job!
