Top Producer is one of the longest-running real estate CRMs on the market — and that legacy shows up everywhere from the UI to the workflows. DealDecks is built for the way deals actually move in 2026: deal-first data model, co-branded client portals, built-in SMS with consent tracking, e-signature inside the deal, and commission tracking that lives where the deal lives.

What breaks at scale

The stack you end up with on Top Producer.

Top Producer covers part of the workflow. Most teams accumulate the rest one tool at a time — until the "stack" is six logins, three sources of truth and a spreadsheet:

  • Top Producer — for contacts and basic pipeline
  • A separate transaction-management tool — Dotloop, Skyslope or DocuSign Rooms
  • An e-signature tool
  • A texting tool — bolted on or done from a personal cell
  • A commission spreadsheet — maintained manually after every closing
  • Email threads — where most of the deal actually lives

Everything important about the deal ends up scattered across that stack. With DealDecks, it all lives inside the deal it belongs to.

Why teams switch from Top Producer to DealDecks

Built for the way deals actually close in 2026

Top Producer was built for the era of phone calls and faxed contracts. DealDecks is built for kanban pipelines, co-branded client portals, deal-room e-sign and SMS-first communications.

Transparent pricing — no sales call to find out cost

Free plan, $49/mo Starter, $149/mo Growth, $299/mo Pro. Published, predictable, with a 14-day free trial.

One platform, not several modules

DealDecks bundles pipeline, communications, deal rooms, transactions and commissions in one product — not separately-priced modules to bolt together.

Modern mobile experience

Mobile-first views for field agents are built in. Run a showing, log a note, send a text, move a deal stage — all from your phone.
