**What do you like best about LocationIQ?**

LocationIQ provides flexible enterprise-grade location based solutions. Can do Reverse coding. Have security like Authentication and also have Access token as multiple security parameter.

**What do you dislike about LocationIQ?**

Lots of users are facing issues in applications such as Javascript websites or mobile apps. For that user have to generate new access tokens on User Dashboard, if required we need to create a separate access token for each application, label them accordingly. There lots of time is been wasted. Provider could fix this issue

**Recommendations to others considering LocationIQ:**

Good geo tagging and reverse tagging features. Try it atleast once if possible

**What problems is LocationIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We as a project, authorized to call our APIs or Maps with an access token. Streamline, the process of  HTTP Resources and IP restrictions. Fixing multiple HTTP referrers, specify one pattern per line, upto a maximum of 10 per access token.
