Comparison · as of 2026
Your seller already gets a report. Here's what it doesn't say.
The ShowingTime Listing Activity Report is a useful record of showings, shared feedback, and listing activity. If your market runs on ShowingTime, use it. ListingBeat is not a replacement for that record. It is the editor the record never had.
ShowingTime documents its report's activity, feedback, sharing, and seller access in its Listing Activity Report guide.
What it does well
A useful showing record.
ShowingTime captures appointments and makes activity and feedback available to sellers. Its controls can share feedback with homeowners, and its report provides a clear view of appointment history.
That is valuable operational data. ListingBeat does not ask an agent to discard it.
The structural gap
A record is not the same thing as a seller-ready weekly brief.
| Job | ShowingTime report | ListingBeat |
|---|---|---|
| Work beyond showings | Showing activity and feedback | Reviewed outreach, marketing work, follow-up, and next actions |
| Feedback | Published feedback records | Seller-safe themes with the agent's context |
| Meaning | Activity details and totals | A weekly read that separates facts, interpretation, and the next move |
| Cadence | Notifications and activity reporting | An agent-approved Sunday ritual |
| Pricing conversation | The activity record | A pricing-evidence draft that starts from the reviewed record |
| Showing system | Connected to ShowingTime | Forward an email |
As of 2026, showing systems are fragmented: MLS-owned systems and brokerage tools operate beside ShowingTime in many markets. ListingBeat sits above them. If it can be forwarded, it can be in the Beat.
That is a neutral layer, not a reason to replace a showing system that already works for your market.
FAQ
Direct answers.
Do I stop using ShowingTime?
No. If your market uses ShowingTime, keep using it. ListingBeat is a separate seller-communication layer for reviewed work and a weekly decision brief.
Does ListingBeat import ShowingTime feedback?
Forward the email and ListingBeat files it to the listing for agent review.
My MLS switched showing systems - does that matter?
No. If it can be forwarded, it can be reviewed for the Beat.
Is the seller report free in ShowingTime?
Often, through an MLS or brokerage arrangement. It is still worth having; this page is about the communication work around the record.
Which plan do I need?
Free for one active listing.
Keep the record. Give it a weekly read.
