THE PERFECT CRM TO ROCK YOUR REAL ESTATE BUSINESS

Which CRM should you use? This question hugely depends on your priorities and needs. Sometimes, first-hand knowledge can help to select the right CRM!

The Novak Team used all of these different CRMs, so we have some insider knowledge of them.

The perfect CRM is going to be unique to your needs. Our experience with them might help you to find the right fit for yourself and your business!

 

FUB:

Pros:

  • Integrates with virtually anything

  • Very simple to use and intuitive

  • Works well with teams, communication tools are good

Cons:

  • Automated action plan based texting doesn’t work. Lots of people communicate via text and don't answer calls, so you need a second tool here.

  • Dialer is not awesome

  • Task management could be improved. I didn't like the way it organized tasks and priorities.

 

Firepoint:

Pros:

  • Integrated with a lot of lead sources

  • Deeply integrated with Ylopo - which was a game changer for the Novak Team!

  • Converts PPC traffic well

  • Easy to use back end with a full suite of tools: Texting, Email and everything else.

Cons:

  • Click to call vs true dialer. The Dialer doesn't go from one call to the next, you have to click and manually start the next call. A true dialer would be a massive time saver!

 

Sierra Interactive

Pros:

  • Sierra Interactive converts PPC well

  • Very complete back end with texts, VM drops etc.

Cons:

  • Doesn’t currently have a deep integration with Mojo

  • Phone calls all seem to get flagged as spam

  • AI is not built in

  • Can take a while to get service issues resolved

  • The UX is not the prettiest

 

Real Geeks:

Pros:

  • Inexpensive - cost-wise between this and Fire Point for entry level

  • Converts PPC well

  • Really innovative and cool Facebook tool

Cons:

  • Not great AI on what your leads are doing - that makes it harder to react on their behavior.

  • Back end feels really outdated, cluttered and old

  • No dialer in the CRM, has to plug into Mojo

 

CINC:

Pros:

  • Tested and battle-proven CRM and IDX platform

  • Really organized and robust CRM

  • Built in dialer

Cons:

  • Issues with importing leads: Sending messages to leads that weren’t created by their platform may not work

  • You are locked into their lead generation management. You can't add leads from Facebook, Paperclicks and such.

  • Doesn’t integrate well with a ton of other platforms or systems

 

Bottom line:

If you are searching for a CRM figure, what features are important to you. Realize, that you get out of it what you put into it! There is a CRM out there for everyone, it's just a matter of setting it up and customizing according to your needs.
