GBDataMaster is a huge time saver for me DataMaster is a huge time saver for me. It cuts down about an hour on the time required to type up an appraisal. Since it transfers the data of the subject property and each comparable sale as it appears in the MLS and/or the county tax records, it eliminates the chance for typos/errors in data transfer which can often happen when typing everything by hand. Signing up for DataMaster four years ago was one of the smartest things I did for myself and my appraisal work. It has more than paid for itself and I don't think I could go back to doing it the "old" way again.

GBVery happy with DataMaster Very happy with DataMaster. Excellent service and I've dealt with two employees there that were excellent, as well: Richard Rogers & Joanna Denos. I've recommended DataMaster to every appraiser I know & I'll continue to use it. Very honest company, with the bookkeeping/accounting. I do hope their technology gets better with GPAR forms. 5 Stars!

GBEvery time your company does an update… Every time your company does an update I have to call you to get the program to work again. Also, in each area all of the appraiser would generally want you to extract the same data and put it in the same place on the forms. However, you have each individual set it up. I would like to have mine set-up the way another appraiser that I have confidence in has set his up.

GBDatamaster was the perfect product for… Datamaster was the perfect product for me. WAS. They rolled out a new platform and the new platform is awful. It is an awkward interface. It makes numerous errors like entering "BusyRd" for a comparable that is in the middle of a platted subdivision. That is just an example. There are many more. The old platform was simple and accurate. The new platform is a failure. Awkward interface, inflexible and makes many mistakes. I am going to try Spark or Anow software. If you are using the original DataMaster platform I envy you. But beware, the new platform will be coming for you soon. Signed, computer savvy guy

GBThe product works and that's key The product works and that's key. My issue is the cost, for what I pay, regression analysis should be included. There are similar programs that are cheaper that now integrate better than before. My key issue that has held me from switching is that I'm waiting to see if Data Master will offer some regression tools to this wonderful program.
