No professional company should ever use Google, When you open up a developers account, what you get is a very watered down version and the accuracy is very poor , there is weak postcode recognition for the UK as they do not hold a valid license meaning that your location could be 2 roads away.
My free account had no SLA and when Google did their updates, the system stopped working and they tried to get me to upgrade to the $10,000 per year licensed account.
There are also issues with no support, childlike directions, bad customisation and little opportunities to export the content.
@Star - there are answers to all of your issues.. you just have to know where to go and have enough experience with the tools you're using. Google and their products are awesome!
I wrote an android moderator client a few months ago. Was ugly and buggy :
