DataSift review: list stacking and a lead system from $149, with the calling done elsewhere
A data and lead management system built around list stacking: pull nationwide data, sift lists against each other without limits, trace, and run follow-up sequences. It does not call or text by itself: outreach runs through tools you connect and pay for separately.
Best forInvestors who stack several lists and want one system to sift, trace and follow up
Not forAnyone who wants to call and text inside the CRM itself
What independent reviewers actually say about DataSift
Most of the weight sits on Trustpilot: 4.5 from 324 reviews on a claimed profile, which the old REISift address now points to. G2 still lists it as REISift, 4.6 from 18. The App Store app called Datasift belongs to another company.
A striped bar rests on fewer than 30 ratings or reviews.
What DataSift actually does
DataSift, formerly REISift, holds your property lists and the leads that come out of them. Every plan includes nationwide real estate data, list stacking and “data sifting” without limits, lead management, tasks, drip campaigns, sequence automations and unlimited record storage, with up to 15 or 30 phone numbers per record. Its free lists include free and clear, high equity, absentee, pre-foreclosure and foreclosure.
It suits investors who work several lists at once and want to see which owners appear on more than one. The list stacking guide explains the method. Calling and texting happen in a connected tool, so budget for a dialer or a texting platform on top.

|---|---|---|---|
| Professional | $149 | 3 | 15¢ a record |
| Business | $299 | 5 | 12¢ a record |

On Professional, tracing 1,000 records costs $149 plus $150 at 15¢, $299 for the month, the same as the Business plan, which traces at 12¢ and adds two users. With the $97 unlimited add-on, Professional is $246 whatever you trace, which costs less than 15¢ a record from about 650 records a month. Yearly billing saves “$298 annually and up”, as its pricing page puts it. Add your dialer or texting tool to the month either way.

What DataSift is bad at
What its own pricing page leaves to other tools.
Outreach runs through integrations you pay for separately, so the plan price is not the cost of reaching owners.
DataSift pricing pageNotice of default, lis pendens, probate, pre-probate and tax delinquent lists sit in SiftMap Pro, $297 a month on top.
DataSift pricing pageAt 15¢ a record, 1,000 traces cost as much as the plan itself.
DataSift pricing pageWho should not buy DataSift
- You want to call and text inside the CRM itself.
- You work one list at a time. List stacking is the reason to pay for this.
- You need probate, lis pendens or tax lists and did not budget $297 for SiftMap Pro.
