## Verdict

**Woosmap for a location platform priced per request. Instaform for your own forms on every location.**

Woosmap is a location platform: a store locator widget, store search with an open now filter, APIs for maps, distance and addresses, Store Pages that give each store its own page on your domain, and connectors for Yext, Partoo, Localistico and Salesforce Commerce Cloud. It is priced per request, with a free tier of 10,000 requests a month to start on. If you need a locator inside a wider set of location services, it covers that well. If you want visitors to act on a location through your own forms, Instaform lets every location offer several of them, like Order and Book a table, and lets one branch point to a different form, for example its own menu. Orders and bookings arrive in your inbox with the location they came from.

### When to choose Instaform

- Each location should offer your own forms, like Order, Book a table or Get a quote
- Some branches need a different form, for example their own menu
- You want orders and bookings in one inbox that shows which location each one came from
- You want enquiries from a contact form to add the customer to your customer list

### When to choose Woosmap

- You want to start on a free tier of 10,000 API requests a month
- Visitors should be able to show only the stores that are open now
- You want a page per store and per region on your own domain, with Store Pages
- You need APIs for maps, addresses and distance, or a Salesforce Commerce Cloud cartridge
- Your store data lives in Yext, Partoo or Localistico

## FAQ

### Can I move my locations from Woosmap?

Yes. Copy the rows from a spreadsheet of your locations and paste them into Instaform as a list. Each row becomes a location.

### Do I need my own map key?

For the map, yes. It runs on your own Google or Mapbox account, so you keep control of the cost. Your locations work as a list right away, and you connect Google or Mapbox when you are ready for the map. Woosmap always needs a Woosmap key; its widget shows Google Maps by default, or Woosmap Map or Baidu, and Google Places autocomplete needs a Google key too.

### Can a visitor order or book at one specific location?

On Instaform, yes. Every location gets its own buttons, like Order, Book, Get a quote or Contact, and each one opens one of your forms. Orders and bookings arrive like any other response to that form, and your inbox and email alert show which location it came from. On Woosmap, a store shows its phone, email and website and a link to its store page; no built-in form is described.

### Does Instaform make a page for each location?

No page is generated per location. A location button can open any Instaform link page you choose. Woosmap sells Store Pages as a separate product: a page per store and per region and county, published on your own domain; its price is not published.
