Asteroom — Pros & Cons

Pros

A $110 camera kit plus $29/mo subscription costs 80% less than Matterport's professional scan service
Automatically generates 2D floor plans with room dimensions from every 3D scan — no additional step
Pay-per-tour option ($59/tour, 6-month hosting) suits agents shooting fewer than 3 listings per month
Built-in virtual staging lets buyers furnish empty rooms in-browser without leaving the tour

Cons

Tour resolution lags behind Matterport Pro3 and iGUIDE in large or architecturally complex properties
No direct MLS-delivery integration — agents must manually export and re-upload media to their MLS
Requires purchasing a $110 hardware kit upfront before the subscription has any standalone value
Branding customization, lead-capture forms, and guided tour scripting are limited vs. CloudPano
