The Verdict
BoomTown is built for real estate teams and top producing agents, with a focus on lead-generation and predictive-crm. Follow Up Boss targets real estate teams and high volume agents and leads with lead-routing and smart-lists.
On pricing, Follow Up Boss is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $69/mo compared to $750/mo for BoomTown. That $681/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
Neither tool offers a free plan, so factor the subscription cost into your decision from the start.

Bottom line: Follow Up Boss has a slight overall edge — but if excellent lead generation matters most to you, BoomTown may still be the right call.
