Review summary

Stratus Collab is appreciated for providing up-to-date listings and enabling client-realtor communication with useful tools like map search and mortgage calculators. However, multiple users report major issues including mandatory repeated logins without a 'remember me' feature, frequent crashes and bugs, a confusing and unintuitive user interface, poor location-based search results, and a lack of essential collaboration features. These problems significantly affect the overall user experience and app reliability.

Pros

Allows users to access real-time notifications of new listings.
Facilitates communication between clients and realtors.
Provides a map feature to search for properties in desired locations.
Includes useful tools like a mortgage calculator with down payment estimates.

Cons

Requires users to log in every time they open the app; no option to stay signed in.
App experiences frequent crashes, lags, and glitches, especially in search and chat functions.
User interface and navigation are not intuitive; key features are hidden or cumbersome to use.
Search functionality is poor, with incomplete or inaccurate location-based results making it hard to find specific listings.
Lacks critical collaboration features such as group chats, sharing lists or notes, and linking with other apps like Google Maps.

2023-06-23	Da*****	The search option when it comes to location is HORRIBLE. It doesnt allow you to specify a city and whn it does it doesnt show all options. You end up seeing over 50 places meanwhile one 5 may be in the city you are searching. Its enough to not want to use because in order to search if new apartments were added I need to sift through 90 somethings properties knowing less than 10 is in my desired city. Only good thing is liking a place and your realtor seeing it.

2022-06-10	Ro*****	It a great idea to be able to access data and communicate to our clients. But, the app needs some tuning. It does not always load when requested among other things. It's a work in progress

2021-10-29	Mi*****	It used to work fine. Now it either doesn't load altogether, doesn't load certain clients, doesn't update the newsfeed, or it doesn't load properties properly. It's very convenient being able to search a property on the road instead of having to open a laptop or go back to my work station... please get this app working properly. Maybe it's because of the switch to REALM coming soon. A notice saying "giving up on this software", or something would be helpful though.

2021-10-19	St*****	The mobile app 'News feed' is not updating. My saved lists are not updating. Constant glitches. Hopefully these get fixed on the next update. Please have your developers look into these issues. I do like this app when it's working well.

2021-10-16	Sa*****	The ideas behind it are great but the app is pooly set up. Constant glitches, need to enter your username and password at every access, struggles to update the likes, etc.

2021-10-14	Ki*****	Man, this app is so clunky. I like the idea of it - make it easy to talk to your realtor, connect directly to the MLS etc. But why does it launch and immediately open a chat? Why are the more frequently used sections (e.g. suggested) hidden away behind "more"? Get your UX Designer on this - and have them get started on user interviews, stat. It is not an intuitive app to use at all. Happy to speak with a UX team member myself! Edit: 2 stars now bc my ratings, lists aren't even saving anymore

2021-06-05	Pa*****	Good for up to the minute notifications of new listings. Search criteria is fairly granular. Terrible for actual collaboration. Can't link/chat to other people other than your realtor. Needs to link to Google Maps from right inside a listing for location/street view. Viewing photos is cumbersome. One at a time vs scrolling. I much prefer Redfin for useability, although it has no chat feature, I can share a link through WhatsApp.

2021-04-18	Fa*****	I like what this can do, but am annoyed that I have to put in my user name and password every single time I want to use the app. There should be a 'remember me' or 'keep me signed in' option. The app also crashes frequently, so I have to shut down and start again. Super annoying issues that I'm sure can be fixed.

2021-03-05	Ti*****	Very easy & informative. I put in what I'm looking for & it brings up what I asked & then I can scroll the map to see what's available. The mortgage counter with the down payment is nice to. It gets you close to what you'll be paying. Try it I strongly recommend.

2021-01-07	EL*****	It's very annoying that I need to log in each time I want to use the app. Also it's doesn't offer an option to see solds and get notifications for recent solds. Many apps out there provide this option. The only good thing about this app is that I can create my own lists of liks and suggestions.
