Agent Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "kvCore" December 19, 2022 5.0 My overall experience with kvCore has been very good, it's a great system and I'm lucky to be with eXp so this CRM is free for me! Pros The most impactful features are hashtags for tagging leads, property boost which imports leads automatically and the AI technology which is like having a virtual assistant within the CRM. These features are excellent and I use them regularly. Cons Often I find it difficult to find leads I have recently chatted with or emailed back and forth and even looking up leads in the CRM could be more user friendly. Switched from [Follow Up Boss](https://www.capterra.com/p/130020/Follow-Up-Boss/) I was on a team with a different brokerage and they incorporated FUB for us. Then I switched to eXp and kvCore as a result. Review Source DM Dexter M. Admin Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Effective CRM Free to eXp Agents" January 12, 2022 4.0 For being a mostly free program, it's great. It's not perfect, but doesn't leave me needing another CRM. Pros The many features including task management, lead management, and Web IDX manager all in one place makes this \*mostly\* a one-stop shop. Cons While this is a free program, you do have to subscribe and pay for a lot of necessary add-ons, and the system can be quite buggy or clunky at times. Review Source JH Jessica H. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to Use Program, Great Support and Training" January 28, 2022 5.0 Since switching to kvCORE I have saved a ton of time, hours each week! I am one who has always used a CRM and found when switching to KCV I was able to make the switch pretty quickly and start using it right away. I do wish I had more time to explore all of the features. It would be great if Insider Real Estate would send out shorts to highlight features of the program. This way I would at least know about them and put them on my list of things to explore. I find I spend time looking for the features, I know there is so much I am not using! Pros I love the built-in AI. My clients seem to really engage with the site and do actively come back. Its user interface is intuitive. I myself have experience with CRMs but I have other agents that are not very tech-savvy and they are able to jump in and begin using it fairly easily. Set-up and implementation were easy. Cons I do wish it had the ability to text more than one person at a time. When I set up a transaction with a couple, I always start a group chat so we can stay on the same page. I end up not being able to fully utilize my smart number because I can not setup a group chat. Also, would like to be able to use emojis and send attachments in texts - not just listing links. I would like to have the ability to customize some of the features. We specialize in Trust and Probate and I find myself forcing parts of the program to work, utilizing fields as others to save info, etc. I would like to be able to import and export a little easier. I use Zaps to do many functions. Reason for choosing BoldTrail It was included with eXp. Review Source Kaili N. Broker Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Have you experienced contractual unconscionability and are seeking a solution?" September 10, 2023 2.0 Very unfortunate! Pros A great service if you have someone with expertise to set up it's functions, campaigns, etc. Cons I want to share my experience with Inside Real Estate/KvCore. When my KvCore website went live, my emails were unexpectedly forwarded to the KvCore software without prior notice. This lack of communication led to several issues, stress, chaos. I reached out to customer service for assistance in disabling the email forwarding but received a delayed response. During this time, I lost access to my domain, which had been taken over by a third-party provider, Cloudflare. This disruption affected my business operations. To compound matters, I had to rebook my travel plans at a higher cost due to these complications. Additionally, I was unable to access contracts and offers, which are crucial in my line of work. Disconnecting KvCore from GoDaddy and Cloudflare required extensive troubleshooting with GoDaddy.The overall impact was not only financial but also disruptive to my business operations. The lack of timely support and communication added to the frustration.This experience has left me disheartened about KvCore. I decided to cancel my credit card and stop using their service. However, they refuse to terminate the contract and are billing me $736, with plans to continue monthly charges of $600 due to the outstanding balance. I believe it's important for individuals facing similar issues to consider their legal options. I've created a FB group called 'kvCore | Inside Real Estate: Pissed Consumer & Reviews' to provide a platform for those who believe they deserve a remedy. Review Source CD Christy D. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Client management and tracking at it's finest!" December 18, 2023 5.0 Once I got past the intimidation of everything that it can do and started handling it one task at a time until I was comfortable and mastered that task I found that it's really quite easy. I wish I had dove in more quickly and started using it long before I did. It does everything you would want it to and is by far the best system for tracking and managing clients. Pros If you want a one stop CRM, Marketing tool and lead capture system this is it. You get what you pay for and KVCore is worth every penny. Once you learn the fundamentals and start using the system it is quite easy. Cons I would like to add more data about my clients and be able to add wedding anniversaries, kids birthdays etc. I know I can use the Task option but I would rather have it attached in their file. Switched from [Sage Construction Suite](https://www.capterra.com/p/154874/Sage-Construction-Suite/) My company provides it plus the connection to the MLS and the ability of it to run my business almost for me. Review Source SF Shannon F. Broker Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "KvCore is a monster machine!" March 15, 2024 5.0 Support is excellent with KvCore. Even using a small portion of the complete system increases conversion rates. Pros Tutorials are great, the system proves itself worthy even when using a small portion of its capabilities. Cons This is a big system that requires constant training. Switched from [Market Leader Professional](https://www.capterra.com/p/213723/Market-Leader-Professional/) We switched to benefit from more options within the system and easier lead generation techniques. Review Source GA Gene A. REALTOR® Salesperson Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "ZOTO KVCore Review" March 15, 2024 4.0 Outstanding! This program has got me organized and kept me in touch with contacts that I may have never thought of without the notifications. Always learning knew uses for the CRM. Thank you and wishing you continued success. Pros All in one database that keeps all clients and customers organized. Allows to make "touches", searches, and categorize. Cons Lag time. Program seems to drag often needing a cache flush sometimes more than once in a day. Would like to see more options for criteria when searching properties. Switched from [Reliance Network](https://www.capterra.com/p/235867/Reliance-Network/) Company decision. The product offers so much more than the last one did Review Source CO Chelsea O. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "User friendly + streamlined accountability" January 21, 2022 5.0 Overall, love the program- It's easy to use for someone that isn't the least bit tech savvy which is important for me. I frustrate easily when it comes to tech and aside from the occasional glitch or hiccup in the software or app, I have no complaints. Pros Love that this auto generates calls to do each day- not all of them are ones that actually need to be called but it is useful for me to see names pop that I wouldn't think to "look" for- it's great that I can be directed towards some work without trying to drum it up out of thin air. Cons The app can be wonky at times- I will make calls using the app and it will just be loading and not let me update my list or enter the notes about how the call went. That then leads me to have to close out the app and then re-open and usually my note will not have saved so then I have to get on the computer and enter it from there. Reason for choosing BoldTrail See above. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Broker Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Avoid " February 3, 2023 1.0 Horrible waste of money and aggravation. Pros Really nothing. I have hated KVCore since the moment (ok third month because it took that long to get them to get me set up). And they have NO TERMINATION ability in their contracts. Cons I have had KVCore for a year and I LOATHE them to the fullest extent. Their customer service is HORRIBLE...they avoid you and ignore your messages. I have had THE worst time with them. Their contracts are ridiculous and they do not work with you. And, the CRM is VERY clumsy and not very intuitive or user friendly. And the marketing articles they may post for you on your social media was so embarrassing to me that I had to block them from posting and delete their posts. AVOID Reason for choosing BoldTrail Speel from sales person who rapidly dissappeared and passed me over to someone else (the name of their game is pass you along to new acct managers over and over again...I had THREE this week as I was trying to get assistance). Switched from [BoomTown](https://www.capterra.com/p/151892/BoomTown/) I left my previous brokerage to start my own and wanted something new. Boomtown leads are not scrubbed...and most are trash. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Broker Associate Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Save your money...or burn it instead. But skip kvCore" July 22, 2023 1.0 Awful. Customer service is non-existent. Platform was not as advertised, promises made by salespeople were completely unattainable. Worst business experience of my life. Pros kvCore is no different than any other CRM, and may in fact be worse due to cost, complexity, and complete lack of support by personnel. Every conversation is with an AI bot. If you're looking to minimize human interaction and spend unnecessary amounts of money to do exactly what every other CRM does, this is the perfect platform for you. Cons Zero support after the sale. Took 3 weeks just to get the website up and running, and even then it was still wrong. Tech support is slow to respond (if at all). Their template for uploading contacts doesn't work. They will happily take your money and lock you into a 14-month contract then forget all about you. They brag about how good their SEO is, but it's all hype... (just check their social media...minimal engagement on their site). Platform doesn't do anything better or faster than any other CRM out there. I've used 4 CRMs and kvCore is the absolute worst. Don't waste your money. Reason for choosing BoldTrail Based on recommendations by other agents Switched from [CINC](https://www.capterra.com/p/143799/CINC-Systems/)[LionDesk](https://www.capterra.com/p/151891/LionDesk/) Colleagues recommended it. They are now regretting that recommendation and are looking to switch. Review Source RA Richard A. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "kvCORE used to be a Rocketship, now it's a broken down Go-Cart" February 21, 2023 1.0 Here are some of the many problems… 1.) It does not show all of the available MLS listings in my area. This is extremely disappointing when you want your Buyers to go to your website to search for properties.2.) Market Reports provide inaccurate information. They provide statistical data that is just WRONG. As Realtors®, we have a legal obligation to provide our clients with accurate information. This is untenable!3.) Now they also seem to be "throttling" the number of emails that you can send out. I have templated emails for things like recommended home inspection companies, mortgage brokers, lawyers, etc. since not every single person needs all of these referrals, they are each in separate emails. I've tested this on several contacts and I was not able to send out all 3 emails on the same day to a single client. So now the email tool doesn't work.Summary: MLS Search Alerts don't show all available homes in my area; Market Reports provide data that is not correct; and the email tool won't send the emails to my clients that I want to send.Very disappointed! Very very very disappointed. I will probably be switching to something else very soon if these items don't get fixed. This review was created February 21, 2023 Pros This software is included for me free by my brokerage. That's a plus. Cons This software is NOT RELIABLE. I have spent as much time over the last 2 years engaging customer support to fix problems as I have using the product. Review Source MP Monica P. Real Estate Agent Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "kvCORE is an amazing system" January 3, 2024 5.0 I have embraced kvCORE and use it daily in my Real Estate business. It is so simple to use. Pros I like how the system is so integrated and holistic. I like how updates and improvements and happening all the time. Our system has the SocialCore and DesignCore integrated which is amazing. Cons The app associated with kvCORE can be a little laggy. I synced my Google contacts and ended up sending out a mass email to my competitors. Review Source Bob J. Broker/Owner Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Concepts but not ready for prime time" January 11, 2019 1.0 Not good. It took them over a month to get my 20 lead source up and running and my data migrated. They refuse to fix bugs . Pros I like the fact that the system is geared towards lead follow-up and it helps drive agents to follow-up with leads. It is also nice to have an integrated dialer, email system and texting included all in the lead view. The IDX website is also very good Cons The product only came out in November 2017 and it shows. Customer Support and product quality are poor. Customer Support fights back on every bug you find saying it's working as designed. The only way they will fix bugs is if you escalate them to your Success Manager. Here is my current bug list: 1.) 103207 - Search on Hashtag only matches the first part of the hashtag before the hypen, so Buyer-A and Buyer-B are both matched then you enter Buyer-A. Closed as working as designed. 2.) Auto responder message says "Oh its Sandy Jamison, we've been talking on sandyjamison.svhousesearch.com - sorry to bother you, just wanted to see if you had interest in looking at homes this weekend.  - Per \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] on 12/26 we can't configure this or turn it off. It is sent every time someone replies back 'Who is this?". This is causing problems with our seller leads and since we turned the system on last week have had three confusing situations with sellers. Since half our leads are sellers we can't use the text features of KVCore. 3.) Sprint cell phone customers see a "Scam Likely" message when they are called from the Smart Number, They are refusing to try to fix this. 4.) 106227 - Hashtag search list in Smart CRM & Lead Editing have entries in it that don't match any records, such as ApptSet, appointmentsetbychristia, appointmentsetbyjanan, appointmentsetbychristina, RescheduleAppointment. They are refusing to try to fix this. 5.) They only support Google Chrome. Review Source JP Julie P. Owner Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Stay Away, Not worth the money and months of hassel" April 6, 2023 1.0 Atrocious Pros I do not like anything about this program. Cons This is the most underlying platform as of yet that I have used. I heard good things and was ready to give this a shot. I was promised 25 leads a month, that did NOT happen. This program seems to entice more spam calls and then those calls are what filters into this system. I have tried to get out of my contract and there is no getting out of it. I am stuck paying for something I don't use, don't like, and most importantly, DOES NOT WORK. When I have tried to talk to someone about this, they make you schedule on their calendar and it takes 2-3 weeks to get on the calendar. This is not lead generation (As I was promised) and the customer service is beyond atrocious. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from this company as they do not deliver nor will they work with you when you are unhappy about the product. Review Source SP Sajida P. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "KvCore should be called KvWar as it is a battle " June 22, 2024 1.0 at first it was great but as time went on the issue got worse and i could not find anyone to help me. You get sent to videos that are supposed to help you solve a problem. Trying to find a phone number is impossible and my emails to support do unanswered Pros When it actually works it is great. however that is rare Cons The Alerts work , but they usually do not have any pictures, Just and icon that says coming soon but that actuallly never happens. Also you can not get a hold of anyone to actually help you. Switched from [BoomTown](https://www.capterra.com/p/151892/BoomTown/) It also wasn't great but at least it worked Review Source Skip Y. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Check out the features I use on KVcore" January 21, 2022 5.0 Great it has helped me and my clients in many ways Pros The fact that the broker has the ability to share with the brokerage. This gives us all a head start on the secrets to real estate. Cons It's pretty complex to learn. I have been using it since 2017 and I still don't have a handle on all the features. Reason for choosing BoldTrail Broker had it available. Review Source ZZ Zeke Z. Real Estate Agent Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Zeke review " January 8, 2022 4.0 It’s super powerful, tons of great features, and it’s helped me stay on task and get things done all in one place. Pros There is a lot of features and all of them actually do what they advertise. It’s also kinda simple to learn after you get the hang of it. Cons The design and speed. I know it just went through a redesign recently and it definitely improved but I live on that minimalist lifestyle and I like the clean modern feel when this has more of focus of getting the task done and less concerned with look. There are also times when I do an action and it takes a second to show the action. Switched from [HubSpot Marketing Hub](https://www.capterra.com/p/171840/HubSpot-Marketing/)[HubSpot CRM](https://www.capterra.com/p/152373/HubSpot-CRM/) All the agents in my brokerage highly recommend it and I’m glad I switched. Review Source BV Berea V. Real Estate Agent Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Active User" March 20, 2024 5.0 Kvcore has overall been great with managing my daily to do list and keeping me on track with customers and clients. Pros The search alerts would be my favorite, it easy to set alerts for my clients and they will receive them through their email daily. Cons The new kvcore is not as easy to navigate when searching for contacts etc. Review Source RR Robin R. Associate Broker Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Love the platform but need more customer service" December 14, 2022 5.0 Good except for customer service. I have been trying to reach someone to go over my database for months and can’t get a call back. Pros Full integration between the MLS and leads. Cons Lack of showing correspondence with leads in one area. Switched from [Market Leader Professional](https://www.capterra.com/p/213723/Market-Leader-Professional/) More functions Review Source RD Ross D. Broker/Owner Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "KvCore was the top platform that I considered" January 12, 2022 5.0 Agent adoption has been slower than I would like. In hindsight I would have structured their onboarding to focus only on the basics of their CRM. Once they are each established then I would have started turning on the next priority item for them on their dashboards. Baby steps so to speak...there is so much that they almost instantly are overwhelmed and frustrated. Pros Main reason was the powerful and easy to use CRM that my agents will actually use and grow their business with. Cons The only issue I have had is keeping my agents focused on the basics in implementing KvCore into their business before they get too distracted by the other bright shiny things that KvCore offers. Reason for choosing BoldTrail kvCore stood out as the platform we needed that will help us grow and compete both now and on into the future. I won't need to change platforms several years down the road. Review Source SL Sheri L. Affiliate Broker Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Pleased but still so much to learn" December 12, 2023 5.0 Pros I love that there is more available and things that I need to work on. Cons There is so much available to use and things I’ve not implemented in my first year of using yet. I haven’t had time to work through it yet. Switched from [BoomTown](https://www.capterra.com/p/151892/BoomTown/) Our office decision after frustration and disappointment with the other. They provide this for us. Review Source NE Nichole E. Realtor Real Estate Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy to use" March 22, 2024 5.0 I love the system and currently have no major issues with it Pros Easy to navigate through the system, keeps track of my calls, emails or any additional notes that I add. Cons I have more than one page of leads and when sending out a database email I can only select one page (250 leads) at a time instead of being able to just select all in my database Switched from [Box](https://www.capterra.com/p/148766/Box/) Company changed the system we were using which was Booj Review Source Dennis H. Real Estate Agent Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Review of kvCORE" November 2, 2018 4.0 I am very impressed with the overall experience with the software. The lead capture capabilities are so varied that learning the things it can do for you takes a while to master. In fact I am not sure anyone can master them all, simply because you will regularly discover new ways to use the system. Pros This is the most powerful lead nurturing tool I have ever used. It is a combination of lead generation, CRM, IDX, and web site. It requires very little set up in order to use...it is almost ready "right out of the box". One very useful feature is the ability to see all properties viewed by a prospect and all correspondence with them on a single screen. Building landing pages & squeeze pages is a snap and sharing out to social media is quick and easy. Nurturing leads is almost totally automatic, behavioral automation is wonderful. Cons Some of the navigation is a bit "clunky". For example when viewing multiple prospects information you almost have to start over at the dashboard to go from one prospect to the other. This is a bit distracting, but overall the entire system functions very well.

I’m able to find them easily. It’s a great CRM. Pros It’s easy to organize my contacts and stay in touch with them. Cons When I send an email, I can only select a few contacts at a time. It would be nice to click on the group and send the info one time.
