Both built for real estate agents. One is per-user and legacy. The other is flat-rate and modern. Here's the honest breakdown.
One flat rate, one login, everything built in. AI assistant, social auto-posting, and website builder included.
The agent CRM that most brokerages have used for years. Solid lead routing and accountability dashboards. Per-seat pricing.

Follow Up Boss was built in 2011. It's a great CRM that never got rebuilt for how agents actually work in 2026 — short video, DMs, AI-drafted follow-ups.
I run a team of 6 agents and Jtek keeps everyone aligned. No more spreadsheets, no more missed leads.
Short answers. No fluff.
Yes. FUB exports a CSV with contacts, tags, and notes. Jtek imports it in one click and preserves your pipeline stages, tags, and activity history. Most migrations finish in under 30 minutes.
Action-plan logic doesn't transfer directly because Jtek uses a different workflow engine, but Jtek ships with pre-built sequences covering the same use cases (new lead follow-up, post-showing, nurture). Most agents find the Jtek versions cleaner.
Yes. Jtek supports round-robin, first-to-claim, and custom-rule routing. For brokerages with 15+ agents running tight lead-routing SLAs, FUB still has an edge in manager tooling. For teams under 10, Jtek's routing is equivalent and the flat-rate pricing wins.
14 days, cancel anytime. You can import your FUB contacts and test the full Jtek workflow — missed-call auto-text, social DMs, AI follow-ups — before deciding.
