HomeJab — Pros & Cons

Pros

  • National coverage — consistent experience across markets
  • 24–48 hour turnaround
  • Photos, drone, 3D, and floor plans from one vendor
  • Shared dashboard for team workflows

Cons

  • Photographer quality varies by market
  • Per-shoot pricing — no subscription option
  • Drone coverage subject to local FAA rules
  • No relationship with a dedicated photographer

iGUIDE — Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Floor plan accuracy of ±0.5% distance and ±1% square footage — measurably tighter than Matterport
  • Single scan generates a 3D tour, accurate floor plans, room measurements, and CAD/Xactimate-compatible exports simultaneously
  • No subscription required — per-project pricing from ~$5 CAD; operators own their data outright
  • Fast capture — a typical residential property scanned in under 15 minutes with the PLANIX R1 camera

Cons

  • Requires purchasing the proprietary PLANIX R1 camera (~$2,600 USD) upfront before any first scan — no rental program exists
  • No photo editing, HDR, twilight effects, or virtual staging capability; a separate service like BoxBrownie is always needed for those deliverables
  • Pricing is denominated in Canadian dollars, making cost-per-scan unpredictable for US operators subject to exchange rate swings
  • No drone or aerial photography capability — the system is strictly limited to interior 3D capture
