A value and feature rich web2.0'ish IDX system with open ability to utilize RSS feeds of listing data (all listings) for seo benefit. The base IDX package is very elegant and extremely configurable and is connected to a decent CRM for lead and contact management. The fact that you get all this configurability and the RSS feeds and don't have to use their website or blog platform is key. Yes, it's an iFrame solution like the others but utilizing their source/iframe code allows for a NO scrollbar effect which creates a more integrated and seamless look. Integrating their RSS feeds can generate tasty seo juice as well. Overall, I like their system because it's very empowering as a user and they have minimized the amount of screen refreshes for simple tasks that are often repeated. It should be noted that I have received feedback pertaining to a lack of intuitiveness from less internet savvy home searchers.
| Pro's | * Powerful, stylish and highly configurable satellite map based search * Agent configurable lead capture settings to require registration after X number of searches * Solid back office system for contact management, automated and customizable drip email system and listing management * Ability to produce RSS feeds of listing data (from front end and back-end) * Appears to have analytics for key measurement criteria * Technologically progressive and interoperable - can be integrated to Top Producer! * High value proposition due to feature rich-low cost base package * Appears to have sufficient customer service |
| Con's | * Search interface isn't guided and can lose some (less internet savvy) people * Does not capture referring url for lead sourcing though the lead source could be achieved through effective use of google analytics * Can not configure registration form for lead capture based on a content type (ie. pictures or virtual tours) * Can't link to the registration form from other items because it's based in javascript. |
