“Coldwell Banker Select has been using realistiQ for over 6 years now and are amazed at the continual evolution of development that realistiQ puts out.  We looked for a company that had complete integration of our company website, lead management, agent websites, call capturing system, and an intranet that could handle all of our contact management, advertising, and communication inside the company and to the public.  There was only one company that fit this bill and it was realistiQ.  I continually get calls from vendors wanting to sell me their technology products and platforms, but it only takes a minute or two of me explaining what I currently get with realistiQ along with the continued development and feature enhancement included before they are off the phone wondering 'what just happened?'. realistiQ has the platform to propel any size company to the next level."

"We had been researching different options to upgrade our systems for several months and in total we had looked at four different companies that offer website and intranet systems before finding your product. 

We quickly identified that three of the systems focused on the website first, intranet second. With concern for SEO, we looked into these systems hoping to find one that had a strong web presence as well as a robust intranet. Despite their strengths, we found that none of the three offered a strong enough intranet to handle a key set of features in the manner that we required.

Our core requirements were:

• The ability for all of our people to easily identify and communicate with each other.
  This was very important as we were networking several offices from different cities.
• File and resource sharing so that all employees can have access to all the same resources.
A three tier website system of Company site, office sites and agents sites in which guidelines
can be set at the top that flow down to the office and agent sites below, as well as share content
amongst all websites without having to duplicate it each time. 

Due to the inability of the first three to satisfy our needs, we began thoroughly researching and testing the first of the intranet focused systems. In short, the system did a very good job in handling our core requirements, with the exception of ease of use. After several months of testing, we were still unable to recall, or even identify in the first place, how to do certain things. The system, despite its strengths, was far too complicated to easily understand and we found that the limited ability to modify the website was of concern to us.

Then we found realistiQ.

Having come freshly off of testing the other intranet system, we knew exactly which features we should expect to find, realistiQ was able to offer these features, give or take a few, but it was truly in the ease of use that the IQoffice system exceeded our expectations. The major factors in our ease of use criteria included, but was not limited to, increased user device integration - I use the Google Chrome Web Browser and some of my devices are Linux, I could only get the other intranet to work with IE, - the layout of menu items making them very easy to find and the level of control and customization available for user permissions and features.

Even after being impressed by intranet system we were still concerned with what we would find for the website offerings. There was a sigh of relief when we finally saw it in action. Not only would the website accommodate our needs and wants, it offered things that we didn't even think of. The individual website created for each and every listing will alone replace at least two separately utilized technologies that we currently pay for.  

Beyond the features, realistiQ is offering us an 'ask and ye shall receive' approach to some of our unique requests. This obviously has limitations, but the underlying factor here is the sense of support, the understanding of our business needs and a flexibility that the other systems cannot and furthermore will not offer."

“I have been selling and marketing products and services for my clients as well as myself for years.That is what I do. Recently, I came across some literature titled SellSmarter2009.PDF on the internet. It basically outlines the future of sales and marketing. You can go to passivepipeline.com and download it for free. I began to implement these practices successfully before being brought in by Coldwell Banker Wallace & Wallace as a consultant. That is where I became familiar with realistiQ's product. I soon realized their system was precisely the type of toolset I was trying to put together for myself, but is built specifically for the Real Estate industry. It is incredibly comprehensive and robust and the realistiQ team was not only easy to work with in redesigning cbww.com, they went out of their way to assist our MLS in becoming the first fully RETS in order to help Coldwell Banker Wallace & Wallace become the first RETS compliant Real Estate Company in Knoxville, Tennessee.”

"I am so excited about the drip marketing/campaigns. I have gotten several good responses from the Friday Buzz email last week and today I sent out the Notice of Value email to my SOI. I have not been in touch with my SOI like I should because it seemed so overwhelming. The drip marketing is making my life easier."

""We liked the realistiQ philosophy of continuous improvement for all clients versus pay-as-you-go. Their pricing structure reflects that and makes it easier to budget for, especially in an industry where revenues fluctuate and are cyclical. realistiQ provides a comprehensive web solution that incorporated features and tools that we have been paying for and obtaining through several vendors. We have now found a one-stop-shop for all of our company and agent needs."
