Please tell me if this Matterport invoice looks correct 3dshowcaseuk 7 3 yearsbriangreul (684): yea I don't know why.... they took the enterprise customers and stiffed the camera owners who weren't already MSP's.
Transcript: Matterport Current Cloud Pricing Plans versus Classic Plan DanSmigrod 2 3 yearsDanSmigrod (29779): Hi All, In Matterport ShopTalk #9 Webinar (above), there is no mention of "Transfergate" ... Instead, the Matterport Classic Pricing is discussed starting at 23:29 and ending at 33:00, AND during the Q&A. Interesting how much time was spent trying to explain how/why Matterport new pricing is a much better deal that Matterport Classic pricing. Worth noting at 51:01, Matterport Director of Product Marketing Volkie Yelkovan says in...
Video: 6 Reasons Real Estate Agents Switch Real Estate Photographers DanSmigrod 4 3 yearsrko1 (362): A big one is a realtor owes a photographer money, will not pay, so they to call a different photographer rather than pay what they owe. Often I know when a realtor is going to call for service because they will pay past due invoices. Then call for new service.

No transfer is allowed anymore from new plans to old classic ones Wingman 4 3 yearsbriangreul (684): It's also worth mentioning that when they rolled out the new pricing it had been calculated to provide a certain amount of ongoing revenue. Any software company needs to monetize it's product to stay in businss. The fantasy land of seed money to burn in a pit just doesn't work and investors tire of it quickly. Matterport has gone through a chunk of cash without producing sizeable profits. If they were producing sizeable profits they wouldn't...
Video: Matterport for Residential Real Estate DanSmigrod 10 3 yearsWingman (4161): The subtitles were the hardest thing to do. I used some screen capture app that allows to do them after screen recording but realised there is no much I can do about the text size. I gave up and used Filmora to assemble, put music and make the subtitles. And even Filmora is quite easy to use their text features are a bit weird. Some text effects come with extensive customization options but some and this includes the subtitles have very limited...
VRBO publishing from Matterport issues: can you help? dave3d 5 3 yearsdave3d (506): They said their issue was "browser related". I've asked for more information and clarification from them. (It sounds like they know what's up.) I'm not "under the gun" on this one so I'll give them a bit of time to respond before I invest more time with Matterport support.

Matterport & Project Habitat leeverdon 5 3 yearsbriangreul (684): I got the email this morning and asked them: 1) Which space they wanted access to... 2) When they would let me be an MSP or MSS..... From what I read in the email I envisioned Roomba meets Matterport. It just wanders around and scans on it's own. Maybe they FedEx it to customers and screw all the photographers.
Here comes 2021 - What's a "successful MSP" in terms of scanning volume? dave3d 5 3 yearsHome3D (3648): Permit me to suggest that "successful" is anyone who is earning a living, supporting a family, and enjoying the work they do. I expect even Jeff Bevos ponders 'How can I earn more' but we in America place too much emphasis purely on monetary gain. Is your family healthy and happy? Are your kids on track to become smarter than us one day? Are we making choices based not only on dollars but what kind of planet we will leave to our...

Is a new Matterport camera coming in 2021? dave3d 12 3 yearsbriangreul (684): @DanSmigrod I think the camera is a price point product, not a margin product. I think they picked a price that people can stomach. The challenge is all the negative noise being created by the broker out of California coupled with the stark reality about not letting anyone new into MSS/MSP. The argument about not enough volume only holds a little water as most of the established MSP's are subbing the work out to photographers. In effect...
Example MSP websites with Matterport tours? BIGNAIZ 2 3 yearsdave3d (506): Unless I misunderstand your question that should be pretty simple: Maybe type Matterport and any major city name...go to the top 3 companies listed that are MSPs...and look at their tours?
Video: Why this MSP charges $135 for 25 photos & posts this on his website DanSmigrod 3 3 yearsExpertise (1178): Ok, you solved one problem and created another one. This is an honest question for Eli- When Chucky Cheapskate (under)orders 25 photos for a 5000SF, million dollar waterfront pool home and then wants to know why you didn't shoot 2 angles of the master bedroom... how do you handle it?

Nadir placement for 100's of 360 images. BlueImmersiveMedia 6 3 yearsWingman (4161): +1 to Pano2VR I have used it to batch patch 100s in one go. It does not apply logo immediately and you will need to wait till software go through each and patch it However you only need 1 minute to apply it to a master node and all other panoramas will be patched automatically.

Video: Why offer Photos Before You Offer Virtual Tours DanSmigrod 2 3 yearsChemistrydoc (1784): @DanSmigrod I can only affirm this strategy. I languished for about 6 months stubbornly doing only Matterport. Once I started offering high-quality photos, things took off like a rocket. I don't do Matterport on every listing, but do on most. Unlike Mr. Jones, I do bundle photos and Matterport (at discounted prices). Keith

Matterport & Ricoh Theta Z1 work well together? jpierce360 11 3 yearsHome3D (3648): @jpierce360 - no, completely different, Z1 vs a Pro 1/2. The Pro cameras us IR to actually gather precise measurements on every physical surface within its range of about 10-12 feet. The Z1 captures no depth data at all. Cortex takes the Z1's 360° photo and uses AI to 'guess' (nothing more than guess) where in space the objects it photographs actually are. It then creates 3D mesh based on these guesses.

Matterport Space of a hotel: 1,000+ Scans of 100,000 SQ FT HarlanHambright 5 3 yearsExpertise (1178): Very cool, Harlen. Two questions for you: 1- how many days and man hours would you estimate this took? 2- how did you get this job? Did you pitch them? Did they call you? Are you acquainted with mgmt?
