Zoopla reveals new Alto feature to make software more transparent
Agents can now keep track of the platform’s latest developments including ‘Look up properties’ to find out more information.
Alto has launched a new way for agents to learn about its latest product developments including access to keys and alarm codes on the mobile view of the appointment details page.
The cloud-based software system’s latest update changes are now easily accessible on the Alto website under ‘What’s New’ allowing agents to keep up to speed on the latest features and functionality.
ONE PLACE
The website section collates all of Alto’s latest product developments in one place – be it product release notes that capture every change made to Alto, new partner integrations or bigger feature launches – which can be accessed via ‘Alto Agenda’.
Improvements in Alto’s latest release notes include the ability to look up properties in ‘Add a Market Appraisal’or ‘Property journey’ to find out more information such as current valuation, floor space and EPC status.
Additional columns can also be added to Alto’s Tenancy Report (within Reports > Property Management) including landlord postcode and email making it easier to get landlord contact details.
Recent larger improvements to the software include enhancements to Alto’s mobile functionality (pictured) – which was the most highly requested feature by Alto customers and enables agents to operate much more flexibly when outside the office and attending viewings.
ALARM CODES
Agents can now access keys and alarm codes on the mobile view of the appointment details page – while they can also now access full branch and colleague calendars.
This enables them to see appointment details for their colleagues across multiple branches (provided they have access to their calendars) and they can also navigate from one day to the other.
Ric Dawson, VP of Software at Alto which is also part of Zoopla, says: “‘We’re releasing updates and new features every day and we want to keep our customers informed of this progress in a simple way.
“By investing heavily in new, larger features as well as constantly improving what we’ve already built.
“We’re confident of further simplifying that day to day lives of our customers.”
