Why people look past CREXi
Nothing on the record flags a reason to move. CREXi has a free tier. People still switch over fit and workflow, and those are not things a catalogue entry can measure, which is what the comparisons below are for.
What each alternative does differently

What you would be giving up
CREXi is most often brought in for a broker or owner wanting free, unlimited listing exposure without committing to a paid tier up front, a seller wanting a native online auction process rather than a traditional offer negotiation, a firm wanting a costar alternative for property records and comps without a costar contract, a broker who has outgrown the free tier and wants priority placement and full lead contact details through pro. Anything replacing it has to cover the ones you actually depend on, and a cheaper tool that misses one of them is not cheaper.
Two things this page cannot settle. It compares on price, model, tier count and rating, because those are the fields the category listing carries, feature-level differences need both full records, which is what the head-to-head pages load. And the ratings are third-party aggregates imported with each entry rather than reviews written here, so a 0.2 difference between two tools is noise rather than a finding.
If CREXi is broadly right and the question is cost, the CREXi pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Real Estate category lists everything the directory holds, and best real estate tools ranks them.
CREXi runs on web, ios, android. Platform coverage is not carried on the category listing for the alternatives, so it is one more thing to check on each head-to-head page rather than here.
