Buy if your team builds collaborative, data-rich web maps — the free tier and flat-rate billing make trying it cheap. Skip it if you only need pins on a map or full desktop GIS analysis; simpler or free tools fit better.

AI-native cloud mapping with a free tier; strong for shared data maps, overkill for simple pin lists.
