Comparison
Darbase vs. Spreadsheets & WhatsApp Web
Spreadsheets and WhatsApp Web are free to start with — and the first cost a brokerage feels once lead volume grows.
| Darbase | Spreadsheets & WhatsApp Web | |
|---|---|---|
| Lead capture | Every WhatsApp, email and Instagram inquiry becomes a matched CRM contact automatically. | Someone manually copies each inquiry into a spreadsheet, if they remember to. |
| Team handoff | Lead routing assigns the right agent automatically; nothing sits unread. | Whoever answers the phone first — or nobody, if the spreadsheet is stale. |
| Property matching | Inquiries are matched against live inventory in the same system. | Inventory lives in a second spreadsheet that may already be out of date. |
| Payment plans (off-plan) | Milestone-based payment plans tracked against the real contract. | A third spreadsheet, reconciled by hand. |
| Arabic / RTL support | Full right-to-left layout, built in from day one. | Depends entirely on whoever set up the spreadsheet. |
