Paragon Connect
Power Search - Search All Results!
With Power Search in Paragon Connect, you’ve always been able to quickly find 15 relevant matches. But sometimes, you need a more comprehensive search to locate exactly what you're looking for.
Now, Paragon Connect goes even further! Along with showing the most relevant matches, you can run a full property search based on your input. The View button has been renamed All, and it now performs a complete search, taking you to a thumbnail view of all possible matches. This update ensures you never miss an opportunity and makes finding the right property easier than ever!
Update to the Email Opt-In/Out Subscription Manager
Paragon has enhanced the Opt-In/Out Subscription Manager! The screens have been rebranded to align with the sleek ICE (Intercontinental Exchange, Inc) logo and colours. The workflow has also been simplified, making managing subscriptions faster and easier for you. Now it’s more user-friendly than ever, helping your clients stay in control of their email preferences.
Collaboration Center
Timeframe option on Updates Widget
The Updates Widget just got smarter! This essential feature helps your prospective buyers stay informed about new matches and updates to their listing searches—keeping them engaged and excited about their home-buying journey. Previously, updates were only visible based on the buyer’s last visit. If they had limited time to explore, some updates could get missed and reset the next time they logged in. But not anymore!
With this release, Paragon introduced a powerful new timeframe option that puts control in the hands of your buyers. A simple button on the widget now opens a dialog where buyers can choose how far back they want to see updates.
This added flexibility ensures buyers never miss important updates, giving them the confidence to make informed decisions at their own pace. With the enhanced Updates Widget, you’re not just offering convenience—you’re delivering a better buying experience.
My Saved Searches Updates
Managing saved searches just got easier. With this update Buyers can still access their saved searches, but now each search includes a comprehensive breakdown: the total number of listings, plus counts for undecided, favourites, possibles, and rejected listings. Additionally, searches are now conveniently organized into two categories—buyer-created searches and agent-created searches. While buyers cannot edit searches created by their agent, they now have expanded control over their own saved searches, with even more editing capabilities.
Notification Change Types
Buyers now have greater control over the types of notifications they receive for the searches they create, ensuring they stay informed about what matters most to them!
Notification Timeframes
Buyers now have the flexibility to decide exactly when they receive notifications for the searches they create, putting them in full control of staying updated on their terms!
Delete & Edit
The updated search cards now come packed with exciting new features, but rest assured, the ability to edit and delete buyer-created searches is still available. These options have simply been relocated to the convenient overflow menu for a streamlined experience. Buyers can also view and run agent-created searches, maintaining seamless collaboration—though editing or deleting those searches remains restricted to ensure clarity and control.
New Side-by-Side Comparison View for Seller Competition
Paragon has introduced a side-by-side comparison feature to the Sell Side Report. This allows your sellers to view their property and compare it to similar listings, providing valuable insights to help them make more informed decisions.
