**Step 1: Sign the HelloSign Agreement in Your Inbox**
 You’ll get an email with

 Check things out while
you’re waiting for MLS approval! We’ll give you login credentials, allowing you 
to install the plugin and access demo data for 10 days. If it takes longer than

Showcase is the best looking IDX and easy to work with. Thanks for adding sold listings.

This company is now run by some oversees third parties and is very unstable, apparently
everyone was replaced? Still haven’t added Sold data after years of promising it.

 [ashf](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ashf/) 11.5.2024

It’s fine, it has basic features needed and fast. Not so flexible in design especially
for the property detail page.But it’s ok, not critical. Other popular IDX plugins
are a not so flexible also.Showcase IDX has own CDN to serve images which is one
of its advantage. Since CRMLS blocks access from outside of the US, an IDX that 
has own CDN was only solution and required for us. iHomeFinder was not able to help
it since they don’t have own CDN.Only thing I wish to Showcase IDX is that if it
were translatable.

 [realtor](https://profiles.wordpress.org/realtorarizona/) 12.2.2025

Easiest and by far the best looking IDX that is out there. Support can be a little
better, but the product speaks for itself. Glad to have my developer quickly integrate
ShowcaseIDX onto my site. About the same pricing as other IDXs and would recommend
every time.

 [wyattsarmasagdesign](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wyattsarmasagdesign/) 26.10.2021

I’ve had nothing but issues with Showcase IDX. The plugin caused issues with the
load time on my website. I’ve tried everything (caching, removing other plugins),
but it doesn’t help. Support, while nice, is really slow and not helpful.
