## Placester Reviews
  ### 1. Zero support and glitchy service

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tom K. | Realtor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 20, 2020

**What do you like best about Placester?**

The website is cleanly looking and the interface is easy to use

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Literally the worst customer support for any software/website of all time. I've contacted them about issues dating a year back, lots of lies from customer service and the "engineer team" doesn't exist, they will just keep lying until the say there is nothing we can do....despicable

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

It's cheap for a reason

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They create problems dont slove it

**Official Response from Seth Price:**

> Tom, I understand your disappointment with Placester and agree that this was completely acceptable.

My name is Seth Price and I'm the VP of Product here at Placester. I wanted to let you know that your feedback has been instrumental in the process of rebuilding our Codeless website builder and retooling the support process. 

I'd love the opportunity chat 1-1. If you're game, please call my cell 401-351-4663 or email me @ sprice@placester.com.



  ### 2. Needs a lot of help!

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2020

**What do you like best about Placester?**

My broker pays for it otherwise there is no way I would pay for it.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

This is a Real Estate platform. They do not have a map/polygon search for the client or agent - yikes! When you do a Zillow/Redfin/Trulia search - you get the listings right beside a map. People want to look at pictures and a map of where listings sit.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

See notes

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

See above

  ### 3. My experience has been nothing but great!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2021

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Maintenance through out the year is the best

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Only simple development. Would like to be able to create a much better experience for the customer.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Have a website for one. Having a CRM attached the website is helpful.

**Official Response from Katarzyna Waniek-Halicka:**

> Thank you so much for taking some time to leave us the review and some feedback. :)

  ### 4. Great support and website.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 25, 2021

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Placester is very responsive when I have technical issues.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Hard to bring in blogs from other places.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having an organized customer list and able to see properties.

**Official Response from Katarzyna Waniek-Halicka:**

> Thank you for taking some time out of your day to leave us the review!  We want to resolve your blog import issue. You have shared your review anonymously, which is why I can't contact you. Can you be so kind to write us an email (reviews@placester.com) with your personal information and a detailed description of the problem? The email will be forwarded to the right hands and we will try to resolve your problem as soon as possible

  ### 5. Easy platform and wonderful customer service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2019

**What do you like best about Placester?**

I love the look of the Placester site and the ease of use. The leads section is great for capturing information and responding to clients. Their customer service is very responsive and friendly. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

I have not found any issues using Placester. We have been able to accomplish all of our needs with this platform.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to present a more professional front on the Internet. We have been able to easily make updates and changes to our website which was a bit challenging prior to using Placester. 

  ### 6. No technical knowledge at all!

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 01, 2019

**What do you like best about Placester?**

I didn't and don't like anything the best. The best part was me laughing when they kept calling me by the wrong name.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Pretty much everything. They couldn't answer the easiest technical questions possible. They can't connect you to their "engineers" and they said that a supervisor would call me back as they weren't available and that hasn't happened. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

I would not go this way as they control you and your website. If you ever want to leave they will not allow you to and will hold your site hostage.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have not solved anything with them, because, at this point in time they cannot get anything to work and don't seem to care to help me.

  ### 7. Slow customer service and technology that is grossly out of date

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Richard E. | Group Chief Executive Officer, Venture Capital & Private Equity, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Nothing. Literally nothing. The customer service is bad, the product is bad, the ability to integrate is bad.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

See above, again, this is technology that does not step up and deliver what the audience needs. The only reason it gets any positive reviews is because you have technology illiterate Realtors who don't know any better.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Make sure you fully benchmark the solution against other providers in the marketplace before starting down the path to regret it later.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

None. You want to be able to feature listings in your local market, and when a prospect clicks "view more", this backward system shows properties from all over the country. How is that relevant to someone in New Jersey looking for property IN New Jersey.

  ### 8. Straight Forward Real Estate Website

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Angela O. | Realtor, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 04, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Easy to use and inexpensive (for basic version). Great looking professional templates. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

As with many basic website builders, this one is lacking highly in customization. Very limited color themes for each template. Also you are only able to choose from a limited selection of pages for your site, meaning if you wanted to add something like an affiliates page or any type of specific page you aren’t able to do so. I was able to get around this by adding blog posts. Still slightly inconvenient. 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This provided me a low cost solution for my own personal Real Estate website. It was incredibly easy to set up saving me lots of time and was able to go live within a few days. It is a great product but with the basic version it is very limited. 

  ### 9. Easy to set up and use

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Serena S. | Marketing Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 13, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

The ease to set up the website is fantastic. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Not much- except for the autoresponder emails. Those are not easy to use nor to have put on where you want them to be put on. Also, on the homepage- there is a tab on the search function that says "For Rent" and I wanted it to be able to say, "For Lease" but I was told it was hardcoded so that wasn't able to be changed. I am concerned some people may think that KPR offers properties for rent. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Very easy to use. 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Better web presence, better search functions for our client. Cleaner, brighter and more welcoming website in general. 

  ### 10. Easy to launch, professional website in days!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amy K. | Principal Broker, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 29, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

The support from the launch team and the videos and help with the Placester site. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Nothing yet, just got up and running but I like it so far. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

I tried to do a WordPress site and a go daddy site and wasted lots of time. Placester has already done all the hard work for you, you just get to add your content. 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Needed a business website with IDX

  ### 11. Great Realtor website!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anthony G. C. | BROKER - Manager RE/MAX ALL PROS, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 11, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

The look and feel. It's clean and easy to operate. The onboarding was key and on task. My take way, I want another site up and running as soon as possible.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

I could use more bells and whistles. Allowing me to add words text to some of your templated pages.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Try it today! Stop wasting time and get off the fence.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a Realtor, Broker and co-owner of a REMAX office, I need to have a clean and convenient site that allows will not only attract the right consumer but also keep their attention fixed allowing them to stay longer and in the end choose our office to work with.

  ### 12. Stellar, Professional Service with a Smile!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Elizabeth G. | Server, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Mikaela Blackmer provided stellar, professional service with a fantastic, "can do" attitude. Every step of the way, she was responsive and highly competent. We are thrilled with her service and highly recommend working with her.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

There is nothing that our team dislikes.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

  ### 13. Realtors with real vision stay away from Placester 

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sean M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 15, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

That site is visually pleasing but other than that, I would not recommend.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

It has been difficult to contact customer service. The backend of this website is very limited and unlike most website providers there is no trial period to see if this actually the tool for your business. It’s an all or nothing type of deal. I am still within the first 30 dats of my contract and figured out I couldn’t add plugins (On the backend) specifically to help me rank on google. I called to see what my options were for cancellation and after speaking with 3 reps, I finally got through to my personal rep. He explained I would have to pay 3 months of payment to cancel my subscription I’ve had for less than 30 days. We both agreed that this site did not have the capabilities I was looking for, why am I still paying your company for 3 months? 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cannot add plugins on the backend. Cannot customize your website. 

  ### 14. Services do not work as promised.  They only thing they get right is charging your CC every month

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andres G. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Visually appealing but aside from that....

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

The e-mail updates to clients do not work.  They never worked on my account.  I specifically asked about that feature when I signed up.  It's now been 3 months.  They refuse to cancel my service and refund me, and they can't get the service to work!  What good is a R.E. website that dosen't have a functioning capability to send client updates.
I'm now at the point of putting in a dispute with my CC and filing a complaint with my state division of consumer affairs.  I'm guessing I'm going to have to change my CC# as well to stop them from charging me for a service they don't provide.  They are very quick to point out there is a one year "contract" without acknowledging they would be in breach of the contract since their service doesn't work.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Avoid, avoid, avoid!  The service doesn't work.  Getting someone on the phone is tough, and getting your problems resolved is impossible.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

None, they have only caused me problems.

  ### 15. Great Product and even better Service!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris R. | Owner, Realtor®, Consultant, PSA-Pricing Strategy Advisor and Notary Public, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 13, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Ease of Use
Comprehensive Product
EXCELLENT SERVICE, and quick, thorough tech support 
Product Support DOCS

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Limited Flexibility in the design and customization on smaller web packages.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Create your list of "must haves" and set up a phone consultation where they'll demo the product and also show you real websites that exist for our industry so you can see how others are successful with it.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have been working with your Senior Account Executive Alexander Stone and wanted to reach out to you about his work ethic. In this day and age, far too often I encounter employees whose service levels are just good enough to not get fired and it's frustrating. I've experienced this from professional services to tradesmen, almost as if the economy and unemployment improvements have driven the working class to a lazy non-caring attitude across the board. Then I had the pleasure of working with your team. While everyone I've encountered with Placester has been very helpful and professional, I feel Alexander has by far excelled. I'm very impressed with not only his knowledge but willingness to help get me really get my business in the right direction. I'm a novice with websites, but know enough to ask questions that lead me down the rabbit hole for the perpetual perfect site. Alex has not only entertained my conversations and emails of "what if's," getting me the docs to bring my self education up to speed, but has provided valuable insights to site performance and best practices that I have not been able to bring full-circle until now. I left a web company that I had been working with for more than a year on the "holy-grail" of real estate sites. I had a grand vision day one, but that company, slowly day after day, spending at least 20 hours a week with follow up and quality control issues, lost focus on my own brokerage because of the time demands it was taking to completely scrapping the entire project. I proceeded to analyze all my other options in the market. Countless emails and phone calls later... I narrowed it down to Placester. It took a while until I committed my business to Alex. I asked him a laundry list of questions, sample sites, testing and poking them to try to break them and past concerns that I had from the horror show that upended my business for the past year. Alex was able to work with me on a platform that was just right for my business. Alex got my business a while ago and I still pester him with site growth plans of what I'm thinking of doing and how should I do it the right way. He has always stepped up to the plate, and rather quickly to get me the answers or a point in the right direction I need. That level of service is grossly missed in the business world and is very, very appreciated from this side. I look forward to our continued growth with your business. Thank you for empowering your staff to take such good care of their clients, especially Alex. He's taken quite a load of stress off of me and my business by making this so easy.

All the best.

  ### 16. Knocked it out the park

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 16, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Timely responses professional appearance. In touch with you throughout the process 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Took a minute to get a meeting of the minds with the rep 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Check them out you’ll like what you see for sure!

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Clients can now see I have an internet presence

  ### 17. Very easy to work with, and got my website up and running quickly.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 18, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Great communication, fast turnaround, and pretty site.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

So far, there is nothing I dislike.  I am not a tech wizard, but it seems easy to edit, and modify.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Presence in my market, ease of use.

  ### 18. Absolutely horrible interface that's freqently broken

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Laura B. | Licensed Realtor, Real Estate, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Placester used to be a decent option for the price, but back-end quality and support have deteriorated so much it's not worth using even if you get it for free.  

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Whoever designed their software must have quit a while back and Placester decided not to replace them.  Each time I visit things that used to work don't anymore.  I figured out work-arounds but sacrificed design.  Today their software wouldn't even save new content.  I tried using PDFs, JPEG, PNG, Word and PPT to n avail.  Finally punted and clicked the "support" link only to have the screen gray out.  Guess their support desk quit too.  

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Don't do it.  

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Placester is CAUSING business problems.  Have to shut down my internet ads until I have a working website I can send them too.

  ### 19. Don't Listen When You Tell Them You Have Cancelled

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Nothing. They don't listen to customers and keep charging their credit cards when they have been told to STOP! When companies don't listen to customers, they get bad reviews.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

They have been told to STOP charging my credit card, but they have continued doing it for months now. I have to dispute charges with my bank. It has become annoying and is bordering on fraudulent.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Don't give them your credit card information if you don't want to be charged over and over again after you tell them in writing to STOP. I am answering below with "expensive" because they are charging me for services I have not had access to for months. They need to stop taking advantage of agents through their relationship with KW. When the agent's site goes dark with Placester when the agent leaves, they need to STOP charging the agent for services the agent can only obtain through the relationship between Placester and KW.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I had them through Keller Williams. When I left KW, I told Placester that I had left and to stop charging me, but they continue to charge my card every month.

  ### 20. Great, user-friendly & modern site

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 06, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

I love my Placester site. I feel it's easy for my clients to use and browse properties. It absolutely sets me apart from other agents in my area who have outdated sites or no site at all. Individual agent websites are the way of the future of real estate in my opinion in order to market yourself as an individual and not just through your brokerage. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

I think the backend of the site (that I see, not my clients) could look a little more user friendly. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

As an independent contractor, if you don't have your own independent site that you have control over then you're missing out. Clients expect this nowadays, especially the young/tech savvy buyers.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I think being able to stand out as an individual agent (outside of my brokerage) is so important. Through google ads/Facebook ads I am able to draw potential clients to my own site where they're more likely to choose me as their agent (instead of anyone at random through my agency). The major benefit is being able to direct potential clients and clients to my site and give my business legitimacy. 

  ### 21. Placester for real estate 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Placester is an easy to use platform with full idx support.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

The price jump from the basic to having any features seems too high for what you actually get. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Try the free version to get used to the UI first 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy to use web site hosting for Realtors. Love the idx benefits, listings look nice and vivid on mobile and desktop. 

  ### 22. Excellent customer service/short learning curve

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Liz B. | Communications Manager, Computer Networking, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

The support team answered my questions (patiently - some were those I could have easily looked up) fast and made the whole experience easy. The platform takes a bit but, compared to others, the learning curve is short.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

The inability to change certain aspects of the templates - such as adding a welcome message with effective content on the home page that would help very much in SEO.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Definitely use if you're setting up a new real estate platform and have a team who is not tech-savvy.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Small real estate company launching their own web site - the ability to have the IDX and MLS automatically integrated saved me, as the web designer, so much time. I hope the team takes time to learn all the benefits like the email blast.

  ### 23. Placester has good looking sites

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 16, 2018

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Ease of use. The site is super simple to set up and get going

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

I get the site as an agent at Keller Williams. I wish it didn't have such widespread usage

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

If you're new to the business and just need a simple inexpensive website solution

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Website and lead follow up.

  ### 24. Excellent Real Estate Agent Website

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anthony Provenzano R. | Real Estate Agent, Real Estate, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Value and quality rank highest along with eras of use. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Maybe a little more flexibility in what shows up in auto searches. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

It's hard to find a company that offers the professionalism at the value Placester does. My clients and colleagues think I paid much more than I do. 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Quality web presence at a reasonable budget. 

  ### 25. EASY to use!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 13, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

I've been using Placester for my real estate website for over a year now.  Placester makes it super easy to setup a professional website with just a few clicks.  It offers many templates for the average user and also provides you with the ability to customize as necessary.  

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

I cannot think of anything that I dislike about Placester and my experience with using the product

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Great product, very easy to use and manage.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Placester provides a professional website where my prospects and customers can search for real estate in my area and allows me to capture information to quickly follow up with potential clients.

Placester is a great marketing platform, with many choices and applications.

  ### 27. Making your web-site understandable and easy to do 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yvonne S. | Broker Associate, Real Estate, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 21, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

I loved the gentlemen that walked me through to help me make the best out of a great web-site program by Keller Williams 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

There wasn't anything, all were very personable and a great asset to your company. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Support team is great with one phone call you have your question answered and that is very important to me. 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My web-site is now complete and looks very professional I can now show clients and feel good about it. 

  ### 28. Poor SEO, Poor customer service, Poor techincal support, Poor site overall.

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alyssa M. | Sales/Rental Agent, Real Estate, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 19, 2017

**What do you like best about Placester?**

It's esthetically pleasing. There's really nothing else. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Poor SEO, Poor customer service, Poor techincal support, Poor site overall. I've had in issue with my site for several months, put in several support tickets with no help, no soultions and only excuses and vague cookie cutter responses. 

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

I would recommend using a different platform. This platform is included in a REMAX package so it's free - That's about what it's worth. 

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have a real estate website

  ### 29. Great solution for real estate agents on a budget

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bruce H. | Real Estate Broker, Real Estate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 03, 2016

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Very inexpensive and easy to set up and configure. The standard templates are very clean and optimized for mobile. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

There are few options for customizing the appearance of the site. Some of the templates have alternate color schemes available, but there is no way to create to totally custom one to fit with your logo and branding, for example. The ability to edit the CSS would be a great addition.

Another missing customization option that I found very limiting was that there is no way to add sidebar widgets. I wanted to be able to add a custom graphic to advertise my mobile app, but this was not possible.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

If you are a techie that is used to being able to write your own CSS, and install plugins and widgets, as on a Wordpress site, for example, you will probably find the platform very limiting. 

However, if you don't want to have to tinker with a website and just need something you can go live with in a short time frame, it is a great solution.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The standard sites offered by my brokerage were not modern, so I moved to Placester as a third-party solution. 

  ### 30. integrating MLS with website

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2016

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Our company added Placester to replace an old website with limited designs. I like that the basic fonts are great and you can get away without doing much to help your site look good. 

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

That for the what we were given inside the office we were unable to change fonts and colors besides the ones that we were given. I do like the basic description, but I hired a graphic designer to come in and do some changes that were a little different and Placester only limited what she was able to do.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When I am googled people can go on my website and search for homes. It is that easy. Had a couple people go on the site and check out a condo that I would have had to send through MLS, and now they are doing able to go in themselves without reaching out to see properties that interest them.

  ### 31. Waste of time

**What do you like best about Placester?**

price, but you always get what you pay for

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

The CRM is not what they advertise it to be. Ever since I signed up for Placester, my auto responders and drip campaigns were not working. How can you run a business without these two very important components, especially if you are running ads. Stay away from placester and give your money somewhere else like real geeks!

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Agents/brokers do your research 

  ### 32. Easy to use for agents but does not offer a competitive feature set.

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2016

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Easy to setup a basic real estate site with options to change templates on the fly. You can setup a site within a day.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Consumer facing search features are lacking (no map based searches) and the MLS data is not refreshed frequently enough throughout the day. Absolutely hate that you can't change the blog post dates.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

Pay for a solution that offers more benefits to your clients.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping people find homes. I haven't realized many benefits in this regard using Placester.

  ### 33. Easy to setup wish more integrated app for value

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 07, 2016

**What do you like best about Placester?**

It is easy to setup, understand and do.  The support staff is well knowledge and great communicator.

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

I wish the packages where more integrated not so a la carte.  Pricing is still is issues with the sites.  As more and more real estate companies have more powerful in-house CRM and other needs for a realtor this seems less value oriented.

**Recommendations to others considering Placester:**

It is easy to use, simple to understand and general website if you need as such, but as more and more real companies having there own applications and/or software placester and other site might have to competition when it has less to offer compare within its own agency.

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**

General need a website make your brad and yourself viable.  These are the natural benefits that are needed as realtor.  

  ### 34. could be a great product but the technical support is non responsive when there is a problem

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2016

**What do you like best about Placester?**

Dont know yet...have not been able to make it functional for me yet...I've been have MAJOR issues with the Placester Support department.  They area having a "technical issue" going on for almost 2 weeks not upgrading my account to genius level so it can be professionally modified....their support department, while very polite, have been completely ineffective in getting any movement on getting the issue resolved.  Meanwhile I have a couple of thousand dollars invested with a support company waited to do the modifications......

**What do you dislike about Placester?**

Polite...but ineffective support department

**What problems is Placester solving and how is that benefiting you?**
