What are the alternatives to ClientLook, and what does a CRM not do?
ClientLook is still sold in 2026, now as part of LightBox, and its alternatives are other CRE CRMs: Buildout CRM, AscendixRE, and Salesforce or HubSpot set up for real estate. All of them manage contacts, properties, comps and deals you already have; none finds new businesses to talk to. That is the gap Scayled fills alongside a CRM. Scayled lists the businesses around a property and across the market that fit, names who decides on space at each, tracks them for signs of needing space, and drafts outreach sent from your own inbox.

Is ClientLook still available?
Yes. ClientLook was acquired by LightBox in January 2020 and clientlook.com now redirects to LightBox's product page, where it is sold as an all-in-one CRM for CRE sales professionals. It has not been discontinued or renamed.
At the time of writing LightBox lists it at US$1,068 per user a year (about US$89 a month) paid annually, or US$129 per user a month month to month, with a 10-day free trial. Check LightBox for current terms.
What does ClientLook do well?
It is a straightforward CRM built for brokers rather than adapted from a general sales tool. It covers contacts with custom fields and activity history, properties with LightBox data attached, sale and lease comps, deals and pipeline, email and file storage, client reporting and mobile apps. LightBox also offers back-office services such as data entry and listing administration.
For a small team that wants a CRM working within days, without hiring a Salesforce administrator, it is a sensible choice.
How does ClientLook compare with other CRE CRMs?
AscendixRE runs on Salesforce, which gives more room to customise and integrate at the cost of more setup. Buildout CRM, which absorbed Apto and REthink, pairs the CRM with Buildout's listing marketing and proposal tools. Plain Salesforce or HubSpot suit larger firms with their own administrators.
The choice is about team size, how much customisation you need, and whether you want marketing tools in the same product. The prospecting gap is the same in all of them.
What does a CRM like ClientLook not do?
It does not find the next client. A CRM stores and organises relationships you already have. It does not show which businesses around your listing are growing, which company elsewhere would suit the building, or who decides on space at a business you have never met.
Brokers usually fill that gap by hand, by buying lists, or with contact databases that have no property context. Newer tools approach it from the property or the occupier. Listing-anchored prospecting explains the property-first method, and BrokerHQ alternatives compares some of the newer prospecting tools.
How does Scayled work with ClientLook?
Scayled is the prospecting step before the CRM. Around a property, it lists every business nearby with the person who decides on space. Across the market, a Target Scan finds businesses anywhere in the country whose size and use fit. Each business is tracked for hiring, contract wins, new sites, funding and lease events, shown on a map and a feed.
Emails are drafted per recipient and sent from your own inbox, and everything stays in your Occupier Database. Prospects who reply go into ClientLook as contacts and deals. For a view of what prospecting software should cover, see CRE prospecting software in 2026. The 3-day free trial at /start includes 4 scans; plans are on /pricing.
