Cloze — Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Auto-logs emails, texts, and calls with zero manual entry — relationship history stays current without agent discipline
  • Connects with 50+ tools out of the box including Gmail, Microsoft 365, DocuSign, and Slack
  • Serves individual agents ($17/mo) through to enterprise brokerages — Windermere, Sotheby's, and Compass are live customers
  • 14-day free trial, no credit card required, cancel anytime — lowest-commitment entry point in the CRM category

Cons

  • No native IDX website — agents must pay separately for a site and wire it in via integration
  • Full AI features including lead capture, generative AI, and lead routing require the Platinum plan at $42/user/month
  • No built-in dialer or calling — requires a separate third-party integration for phone outreach
  • Concierge support (priority help and personalized training) costs an extra $20/user/month with a $500/month minimum — standard support is self-serve documentation
