Demo both if you want a website and CRM together. Make your decision after seeing the proposed local pages, received inquiries, and complete cost for your team. Sierra describes an integrated IDX website and CRM. Real Geeks presents an IDX website, CRM, and marketing automation as its base platform. These are vendor descriptions checked October 23, 2026. [Sierra's platform](https://www.sierrainteractive.com/), [Real Geeks' platform and pricing](https://www.realgeeks.com/real-geeks-pricing). The comparison below provides buying criteria. It does not assign performance scores or predict closings. ## Compare equivalent users and billing terms Sierra's pricing page lists Starter with one user, Essential with three, and Growth with five. It presents separate annual and monthly subscription amounts. Its setup row lists zero for annual subscriptions and $500 for monthly subscriptions. [Sierra's package comparison, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.sierrainteractive.com/pricing/). Real Geeks' pricing page displays a $399 monthly base, a $500 setup fee, and two included users. It lists IDX feeds at $10 per board monthly. [Real Geeks' published pricing, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.realgeeks.com/real-geeks-pricing). Those figures describe different packages. Request quotes for the people who will use the system and the feeds you need. Have each quote state the commitment, payment schedule, setup, extra users, and optional services. | Requirement | Ask Sierra to establish | Ask Real Geeks to establish | | --- | --- | --- | | Your actual team | Package and additional-user charges | Included and additional-user charges | | Your listing sources | Exact feeds and applicable charges | Exact boards and applicable charges | | Your website design | Included design and proposed upgrades | Included layout and any customization work | | Your communications | Required tools and usage charges | Required tools and applicable conditions | | Your transition | Import work and account handoff | Import work and account handoff | Choose a comparison period. Calculate setup plus every required charge across that period. Mark missing prices UNRESOLVED until the provider answers. ## Compare the public website through a local task Give both demonstrators the same neighborhood and approved service description. Request a neighborhood page, a property-search route, and a seller-service page using those materials. Perform a correction yourself with the access included in the quote. Change a paragraph, replace a photograph, and update the contact destination. Record tasks that require support and ask how those requests are billed. Avoid choosing from the homepage alone. Ask how a buyer gets from your neighborhood guide to a relevant property question. Ask how a homeowner requests help selling without first completing a valuation form. Use the existing [Real Geeks value assessment](/articles/real-geeks-worth-it-agent-website) if you need to decide whether a combined platform belongs in your scope. ## Compare a received inquiry in each CRM Prepare a marked test with contact details you control. Begin on the public property page and ask a specific question. Have the demonstrator show the record received by the intended agent. Check the property address, question, reply information, source page, and assigned person. Ask the agent to open that record from the device they use daily. Test a seller request independently. For a team, prepare an existing-contact scenario and an unavailable-agent scenario. Write the expected owner before testing. Require the provider to explain any difference between your policy and the proposed configuration. Evaluate the work an agent must perform after receipt. Ask them to find the question, record a response, and identify the next task. Choose the workflow your team can demonstrate and maintain. ## Keep platform costs separate from advertising Real Geeks lists optional Social, Search, and Seller lead packages beside its base platform. [Real Geeks' optional packages, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.realgeeks.com/real-geeks-pricing). Request a website-and-CRM quote first. Add advertising only when you have defined that separate purchase. Require the media budget, management charge, and commitment to appear as distinct lines. Use your own records to compare registrations, property questions, conversations, and appointments. Define those stages before reviewing any sales presentation. Ask which stage a quoted result measures. ## Resolve your exit before choosing Request a sample contact export, an inventory of reusable page content, domain access, and the written cancellation process. Have the receiving maintainer inspect what can be reconstructed from the proposed handoff. Website-file portability, account-specific cancellation costs, and complete history transfer remain UNRESOLVED in this comparison. Obtain answers for the agreement you would sign. Choose Sierra or Real Geeks when its demonstrated package fits your team and the full cost is acceptable. If the requirement is a website repair, describe that separately.
