When Software becomes a pitfall…
There is already a lot of real-estate software on the market, that can simplify the daily routine for a real-estate agency. The purchase of a software-solution should be thought out very well. You will be faced with
-
one time prime costs
- In some cases, you have to pay a license for each computer in your company.
- Some software-solutions are artificially limited, e.g. in number of properties or customer-contacts. You have to buy a bigger license to exceed these limits.
-
regular operating costs
- Some developers don’t offer free update-services for their product. You have to pay on every update for your already bought software.
-
It is also quite common, that some
special features
need to be paid. Some companies want to be paid for every export-interface to a real-estate portal. - Support on technical problems is normally not free. This service can only be provided by the developer. Because the source-code is not opened, you won’t get support from a third party.
A supposed cheap software, can be become a pitfall of costs. Especially if you’re looking for a
small
software to manage and export your properties, these costs are in no appropriate rate
compared to your daily use.
Most Software depends on operating systems
Most of the available real-estate software only supports Windows
operating systems. As far as
we know, there is only a few real-estate solutions for MacOS X / Linux / BSD / Solaris available. In
most cases, the user is forced to use a specific operating system.
OpenEstate-ImmoTool is build on top of the free Java platform. It runs on all operating systems, that offer a current Java Virtual Machine. It does not matter whether you run it on Windows, MacOS X, Linux, BSD, Solaris or all systems at the same time!
OpenEstate-ImmoTool helps your real-estate agency to become independent from Microsoft
Windows
. For nearly every other field of duty, you can find appropriate alternatives. There are
no more obstacles left for a changeover to a free operating system.
Working together, not against each other
