Frequently Asked Questions
How does WAFI differ from LeadRat and TeleCRM?
While LeadRat and TeleCRM are essentially outbound telecalling and autodialer tools, WAFI is a complete Real Estate Operating System. In addition to fast lead assignment and click-to-call, WAFI includes a native property inventory database, automated buyer requirement matching, mobile site-visit check-ins, RERA compliance tracking, and predictable flat team pricing with zero per-user seat penalties.
Why do Indian real estate brokerages switch from LeadRat or TeleCRM to WAFI?
The two most common reasons are: (1) Pricing: As agency sales floors expand to 5, 10, or 20 agents, LeadRat and TeleCRM bill per user (reaching ₹75,000 to ₹2,50,000/year), whereas WAFI covers up to 10 users for flat ₹24,990/year. (2) Inventory: Neither LeadRat nor TeleCRM connects buyer preferences to available property inventory, forcing agents to juggle separate spreadsheets for listings.
Can my telecallers click to call leads and log call outcomes in WAFI?
Yes. In WAFI, calling agents tap a single button to initiate a phone call or WhatsApp message directly from their mobile browser or desktop.
