  • Cloud-only processing raises privacy concerns

    From 1 comment
    • It looks like a cloud-only app. If it doesn't run entirely locally, it's useless to me. Shipping my data to an external data processor is a security risk I'm not allowed to take.

  • Business model and pricing

    From 2 comments
    • What are you thinking is your business model? I'm a sysadmin at a small MLS, trying to figure out where we'd integrate it. At $2/stage it's something we'd probably have to have…
