Deployment for CLARIFIRE: Cloud, with a RESTful API connector. Deployment for RES.NET: Cloud, with role-specific portals.

What each record credits
CLARIFIRE: Direct Fannie Mae SMDU and Freddie Mac Resolve integrations put decisioning in the workflow. CLARIFIRE: A named RESTful connector, CLARIFIRE CONNECTOR, not file drops or screen scraping. CLARIFIRE: Rules engine ships policy changes as configuration, not vendor release cycles. RES.NET: Distinct portals keep agents, vendors, buyers and homeowners inside the system, not on email. RES.NET: Covers REO disposition, valuation routing, loss mitigation and preservation tracking. RES.NET: In default technology since 2003, through multiple distressed cycles.
What each record holds against them
CLARIFIRE: No servicing system of record published, so the core connection is bespoke. CLARIFIRE: A general-purpose engine needs internal configuration ownership smaller servicers often lack. CLARIFIRE: Modest company scale is a concentration risk on a critical default process. RES.NET: New owner sells valuations and field services, a conflict for competing vendors. RES.NET: No servicing system of record integration is named publicly. RES.NET: No pricing and no client count are disclosed.
Which one fits which shop
Best fit for CLARIFIRE: Loss mitigation shops that need investor rules and workflow without replacing the core. Best fit for RES.NET: REO and loss mitigation groups managing a large outside agent and vendor network.
What each entry concludes
CLARIFIRE: CLARIFIRE is a configurable workflow and rules engine servicers run mostly for loss mitigation and default. CLARIFIRE: It layers over whatever core system you already have. RES.NET: RES.NET is a portal system for default and REO work, running since 2003. RES.NET: Each party in a distressed deal gets its own view, from asset manager to homeowner.
