Is Matterport The Best 3D Solution?

Short answer, we don’t think so.

In today's real estate market, virtual tours have become absolutely necessary to help potential buyers get a sense of the property before physically visiting it. Among the various virtual tour technologies, Zillow 3D and floorplans have emerged as a strong contender, surpassing Matterport in many ways.

[Before we go any further, lets address the elephant in the room. Zillow is not always a Realtor’s best friend. However, there’s a saying that goes, “Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.” Our opinion is that the end user (homeowners) will use whatever they like the most, and that’s usually a national 3rd party site like Zillow vs. our website or the Realtor’s website. We are willing to play ball with these sites for what we feel is the better product.]

Firstly, Zillow's 3D and floorplan technology provides a higher quality and immersive experience for viewers. Zillow's technology creates a hi-res virtual walkthrough of the property, giving viewers a more accurate sense of space and layout. The addition of floorplans also allows potential buyers to easily visualize the flow and size of each room, making it easier for them to envision themselves living in the space. Additionally, Zillow's 3D and floorplan technology is more user-friendly than Matterport, ditching that dizzying experience where you accidentally zoom in and out of some alice-in-wonderland type of space with fuzzy images.

Overall, Zillow's 3D and floorplan technology offer a better virtual tour experience for potential buyers. We love the floor plan option that gives both a printable AND interactive foot print of the home using a mix of both our 3d images and our high quality “big camera” images.

It may be a Zillow product by name, but we believe it’s the most usable option available!
