XMod Pro works in every version of DNN community or Evoq from 4.x all the way up through the newest 9x+. The code used within XMod Pro is universal and for the most part, works in all versions, so you can use the same code in any version of DNN.
Yes, you need to purchase and install XMod Pro in the site to then install and use this module kit (which is a collection of template, form and feed code that is added into your site's XMod Pro instance.
So, for example, in addition to the Google Maps Module Kit:

you will need to have XMod Pro also in your site and licensed:

And then we have some examples of the Google Maps kit on several client and example sites

(too, this is our module kit example page and lists some extra information about settings and setup)

The way that XMod Pro works is that you have direct access to the code. So you can customize and edit anything that you like. We have versions of the map in use where there are category and feature dropdowns that allow you to filter and organize the display of locations on the map. Additionally Google Maps has many features for the markers, popups, etc that can be added into the map displays. You can either work within the code to make these additions and changes, or we can assist you with a few hours of a custom development project to add in any features you like. There's a good chance, too, that we may have a feature already built that we could add in quickly.
If you have questions about how to use XMod Pro or would like personal training or assistance with a project, please reach out, we're glad to help!
