Revolutionising online document management for estate agents in the cloud - go paperless with the OMS

We are revolutionizing online document management for estate agents, one step at a time, through our industry leading cloud infrastructure. Here is a look at our latest upgrades and other features that enables offices to work towards a paperless environment.

CAPTURE EVERY SINGLE DOCUMENT FOR A PROPERTY

We are proud to announce an important upgrade in the property document management section of industry leading OMS for Estate Agents.

Estate Agents can now save bigger and more files on every single property listing they capture in the OMS.  Read more about the upgrade here. Estate agencies can now enjoy getting up to 10GB of storage for files saved on property listings included as part of their subscription packages and if they ever run out of space, can purchase additional 1GB bundles to provide limitless space. Estate agents can essentially save everything related to a property, and since you can archive property listings, it is always available 5 or 10 years down the line of required. All stored securely in our cloud environment.

The functionality was available before but was limited to smaller 1MB documents.

SHARING DOCUMENTS IN THE OFFICE, SIMPLIFIED

Back in 2011 we launched the document library module for estate agents and in 2012 we’ve double the space. The document library allows file sharing in the office and your group through a very easy to use interface. The OMS also provides personal space for very single user in the OMS, at no additional cost.  This ranges from 50MB to 500MB per user and 100MB to an incredible 10GB per office. (All of this still included standard in the OMS subscription packages).

FAXING, SIMPLIFIED

In 2012 we’ve launched an industry first, allowing estate agents and agencies to get their own fax number at the click of a button, and immediately start sending faxes straight into their document library.

Users are then immediately notified via the unique live inbox facility and through email that a fax has arrived. This has simplified fax document management for estate agencies and with drag-and-drop features it made it incredibly easy to categories faxes. The perfect solution whether you have 1 or 100 agents. Still, all of this included in the standard OMS subscription fees.

Easily link Base with external CRM systems

Image
What is the Base Zapier integration? The Entegral Base system was recently improved with a native Zapier app integration . This allows estate agents to exchange data and create automated workflows with over 2000+ popular apps, including all the leading CRM specific apps.  Why even link a CRM system? Although Base has contact management, contact categories, automatic lead import, and other great CRM features , users sometimes require very specific CRM functions that we don't (yet) cater to. With our Zapier integration , we allow agents to link any popular app with Base. Once linked with your app, you can for instance automatically synchronise your contacts from Base to the external app or vice versa.  The added benefit is that you can create automated workflows and link more apps (e.g. insert contact details into a Mailchimp drip email campaign  and ZOHO CRM at the same time). This makes the Zapier fee irreverent compared to the derived benefits.  Automated portal lead import from

Property24 acquires Private Property, what do estate agents think?

Image
Property24.com, South Africa’s largest property portal owned by Naspers, has bought rival Private Property . The deal is likely to come under the close scrutiny of competition authorities as it involves the two biggest property portals in the country. Due to the impact of such an acquisition on the industry, Entegral was interested to find out what the perceived advantages and disadvantages of such a deal would be, both through the eyes of the consumer and the estate agent.   Here are the results from around 250 responses received on a survey done over a 2 day period , mostly from agents and agency owners. While the survey presents a small portion of the market (a ccording to the EAAB's latest annual report there are 19,424 registered agents and agency owners, excluding intern estate agents, in South Africa) , f eedback has been received from well-respected agency owners and agents, and we believe this gives a good indication of the current view of agents. The fear from estate
