Head-to-head comparison
Two real estate CRMs, two very different audiences. Here's which one fits a solo agent or small team, and where BoomTown still wins for large brokerages.
The pick for agents
The CRM built for real estate agents, by a real estate agent. Every feature is there because a closing depended on it.
Best for: solo agents and small teams (1-10) who want one login for leads, pipeline, follow-ups, calendar, texting, and their website.
Better elsewhere
An enterprise lead-gen + CRM platform built for large brokerages and team leaders running paid lead programs at scale.
Best for: brokerages and 20+ agent teams with a five-figure annual marketing budget and dedicated ISA/admin staff.

The real difference
BoomTown is a strong product. It's just not priced or scoped for an agent running a personal book of business.
From missed call to signed contract.
From paid traffic to assigned ISA.
FAQ
Short answers. No fluff.
Probably not. BoomTown is engineered for teams of 5+ with a dedicated ISA, paid lead-gen budgets, and brokerage-level reporting needs. Solo agents and small teams almost always end up paying for capacity they never use.
Jtek does not include IDX (intentional, so bring your existing IDX site and pipe leads in via webhook). Jtek does include landing pages and forms, but you bring the traffic (your social, ads, sphere). BoomTown bundles paid lead-gen on top, which is part of why their entry point is closer to $1,000/mo than $60/mo.
Yes. Most agents are fully set up in under an hour. Export your contacts and notes from BoomTown as CSV, import into Jtek, and pick a pre-built pipeline template. You can have Jtek live before your next BoomTown invoice.
14 days free, cancel anytime. You can test the full product, including missed-call auto-reply, pipeline, AI assistant, and social integrations, before committing. BoomTown is demo-gated with no public free trial.
