Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

CREXi

  • The genuinely useful lead-conversion features, full contact details and priority placement, sit behind PRO subscriptions with unpublished pricing, so the free tier is a lighter product than it first appears.
  • CREXi Intelligence is sold as a separate product from PRO listing subscriptions, so a broker wanting both marketing tools and data access is paying two distinct, unpublished prices rather than one bundled fee.
  • As a newer entrant against CoStar decades of proprietary data collection, CREXi Intelligence coverage and data quality in less-active markets may not match CoStar depth.
  • Auction infrastructure is a differentiator but only useful for sellers actually wanting a bid-based process, which is a minority of commercial transactions.
  • Free-tier listings compete for visibility against PRO-tier paid placement, so a broker relying only on the free product accepts lower search prominence than paying competitors.

Matterport

  • The free plan allows 1 active space and 2 users
  • The plans page shows no dollar amounts; price is set by the number of active spaces and only appears after selecting a plan
  • Paid plans are billed annually and each tier caps both active spaces and users, from 5 to 20 spaces and 3 users on Starter up to 100 to 300 spaces and 50 users on Business
  • Enterprise and government plans are contact sales with no published rate
  • Spaces beyond the plan allowance require moving to a higher tier rather than paying an incremental fee shown on the page
