I work at one of those "unnamed 3rd party vendors" that receives MLS data and around here we've been hating Tempo5 since last fall. I wish I could offer you some hope about improvements, but my experience says that the system never gets better. The first MLS' that converted still go down randomly, confuse data, duplicate columns, etc. We tried warning all the MLS' that we work with that Tempo5 was painful at best. Alas, they must have a really great sales team! As I sit here trying to actually log in to the database to make our Sandicor feed work, please know, it's not just you. This is a "can of suck" for EVERYBODY! Kris –

And if we ever do see that day, I just hope we are all still in business. My productivity and service to my clients has gone in the tank this past week.

I'm finding it challenging too though once the kinks are out of it, it looks like it will bring some improvements! thanks for the laugh -- you made my day!

Ignorance is bliss. Can of suck, indeed. Appraisers are even livid. We spoke with one yesterday that said the new software has quadupled the time it takes for him to complete an appraisal. There are not a lot of happy licensees in San Diego this week.

Add the fact that their IDX went down for 5+ days and you can imagine why no one was answering the phones. Tempo5 sounds like a can of suck.
