NoteRouter is built for you.
Constant Contact is built for everyone else.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key differences between NoteRouter and Constant Contact for member engagement?

NoteRouter is built specifically for real estate associations and MLSs, offering full integration with AMS systems, texting, and industry-specific templates and designs. Constant Contact is a general marketing tool not designed for real estate organizations.

Why do real estate organizations choose NoteRouter over Constant Contact?

Associations choose NoteRouter because it connects directly to their member database, supports both email and texting for no additional cost, has a modern and easy-to-use interface, and provides best-in-class personalized customer support.

Can NoteRouter replace Constant Contact for email and text messaging?

Absolutely. NoteRouter offers email, texting (SMS), scheduling, segmentation, and more, eliminating the need for Constant Contact or a separate texting/SMS platform.

Does NoteRouter integrate with association management systems like GrowthZone, Rapattoni, RAMCO, or Tangilla?

Yes. NoteRouter integrates directly with AMS platforms such as GrowthZone, RAMCO, Rapattoni, Tangilla, and others to keep your contact lists accurate and up-to-date.

Which platform offers better member targeting?

NoteRouter offers smarter, real-time targeting based on AMS fields so you can reach members by office, committee, membership type, or MLS role without manually building static lists.

Is NoteRouter easier to use than Constant Contact?

Yes. NoteRouter is designed for association staff with an intuitive interface, built-in templates, and no complicated list management or segmentation rules.

What kind of support does NoteRouter offer?

NoteRouter offers hands-on onboarding, AMS integration support, and U.S.-based customer service tailored for associations and MLSs, not a generic support chatbot.

How does NoteRouter’s pricing compare to Constant Contact?

NoteRouter offers flat-rate pricing with no per-contact fees, unlike Constant Contact, which charges more as your list grows. This makes budget approval from your Board super straightforward.

Does NoteRouter have better deliverability rates than Constant Contact?

Yes. Because NoteRouter is designed for member communication, not marketing, it avoids spam triggers and improves inbox placement with domain-level authentication.
