In photos: Are you empowering your agents with a true mobile office solution?

Entegral provides a complete mobile real estate solution for estate agents, from listing & contacts & document management using Base, to it's 100% uptime, serverless responsive real estate websites, Flex.

We recently got our hands on the latest Samsung Galaxy S5e tablet. One of the best Android tablets you can buy at around R10,000: a slim design, awesome battery life and incredible display. The keyboard cover is what makes this tablet the perfect companion for estate agents who are always on the move and need quick access to listings, contacts or office files.

Combine with a Rain mobile unlimited data deal (R250/month) and you are empowering your agents with a true mobile office solution.

Here is what Base looks like on the Samsung S5e, editing a property listing:





With the keyboard folded away (and in portrait mode), you can still access all the features, here we are capturing a new property listing:





Even when you only have access to your phone, you are in good company with Base. The responsive design enables you to still view all your listings, contacts and files. Here we see the timeline view when you log in: new listings, price updates, property enquiries and more are all shown here so agents can catch up with what is happening in the office:




Here we are capturing a new contact, and tagged the contact as an urgent cash buyer:



Using our central contacts database, we can easily filter for these contacts from our phone:




Since you can link up your mailbox to Base, all your leads are imported into a central inbox for you to process:





There's a lot more cool functionality launching soon for Base. To learn more visit www.entegral.net/base or follow us on Facebook for the latest updates.

Easily link Base with external CRM systems

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?

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
