How MLS Genie™ compares
Honest, side-by-side comparisons against other real estate platforms — what you own, where your site and SEO live, what happens to your data if you cancel, and what you actually get for the price.
Hosted platforms
All-in-one systems that supply the website, the CRM and the listings together, run on the vendor's infrastructure. You rent the whole thing, and the site is theirs. These comparisons focus on what you keep when you stop paying.

See the comparison →IDX search and lead capture
Products that add MLS search to a website you already have. Most ship a WordPress plugin, but the listings are served from the vendor. These comparisons focus on where the listing data actually lives.
Buying Buddy
An affordable embeddable IDX and CRM plugin with vendor-hosted listing data. Compared on data ownership, scope, and price.

A well-built WordPress search plugin at $94.95/mo, with no iframe or subdomain and a listing refresh at least as fast as ours. Compared on where the listings are stored, scope, and price — it is the cheaper product.
See the comparison →Listing import plugins
Plugins that pull MLS listings into your own WordPress database as real pages. The closest architecture to ours. These comparisons focus on who carries the MLS licence and the compliance obligation.
Marketing and automation stacks
General-purpose CRM and automation tools adapted for real estate. Powerful, but no native MLS connection. These comparisons focus on what you would still have to build yourself.
