Product Overview
Diverse Solutions (now part of Elm Street Technology) offers a family of IDX products: dsIDXpress (WordPress plugin), dsSearchAgent (standalone search), and theme-integrated IDX. Under Elm Street's ownership, Diverse Solutions connects to the broader Elevate platform — meaning agents can start with IDX and bolt on CRM, email marketing, or websites without switching vendors. Pricing is mid-market ($60-150/mo depending on feature set), MLS coverage is competitive, and the ecosystem angle is the differentiator vs standalone competitors.
