“Contrary to existing similar services, which were difficult to put into practical use in the field due to the overall burden of capital investment, time and effort, cost, and amount of data handled, this service has all of these aspects reduced in weight. I was surprised at how practical it was. We look forward to the development progress and practical application of the official version. ”
“As a tool that can be easily used by customers and staff anytime and anywhere, we envision that it will not only improve the efficiency of guidance (customer recruitment) work, but also be used for viewing viewings, which can be a major burden at the time of sale. If this solution can be of concrete help to sellers, we hope to be able to differentiate ourselves from other companies in terms of service and use it to acquire intermediaries. ”
