Can you start turn by turn navigation in those countries? In Vietnam, although the maps are more than good enough, you can only preview a route, you can't actually start the route tracking. This is very frustrating if you're on a motorbike where the voice instructions and vibrations would be very useful.

In Kenya, you can use turn-by-turn navigation on Google Maps, and it works very well, especially within Nairobi. Other towns may not be covered as well (I think), but it works excellently (voice instructions, etc) in guiding you on highways between towns.
