Pros

“However, managing constant notifications can be overwhelming at times, and finding older messages in a busy channel can be tricky. While it improves team connectivity, the volume of communication can become distracting, making it essential to manage notifications effectively for a smoother experience.”

Arthi R.

Engineer

“Channels help keep discussions organized by project or department, file sharing is seamless, notifications can be customized to reduce distractions, and the powerful search feature makes it easy to retrieve older conversations.”

Emilia W.

Network Support Coordinator

“The intuitive interface, reliable performance, and wide range of integrations have helped streamline our daily workflows and improve productivity. While there are occasional challenges with managing large volumes of messages and notifications, the benefits far outweigh these minor drawbacks.”

Andrea L.

Innovation Manager

Pros

“Like-- more accurate than if you had a human taking notes with you. And because it records the meetings, you can click on a sentence from the ai notes and it will replay that section of the call for extra context!”

Ryan R.

Owner

“I can also generate summaries mapped to my favourite sales qualification frameworks like SPICED. if I want deeper analysis, I can ask Fathom about specific topics and I get the answer without having to dive into the recording directly.”

Russell P.

Fractional CRO

“I use it to manage multiple, fast moving projects, Fathom allows me to seamlessly run meetings without having to log and track the next steps and follow on points.”

James L.

Director

Cons

“Notification management can also be challenging in active workspaces, leading to information overload if not carefully configured. While Slack offers powerful search capabilities, finding older conversations or specific files is not always as intuitive as it could be.”

Cristiano F.

Consultant

“The lack of proper conditional logic (if/then branching) is frustrating. If you want to build complex, multi-step flows with different outcomes based on user input, the native builder just can't handle it.”

Denis M.

Recruiter

“Notifications can become overwhelming fast if you don't take time to configure them properly, and most people don't — which leads to either constant pinging or people muting everything and missing important messages.”

Enish S.

Business Administrator

Cons

“When viewing meeting notes on smaller screens (e.g., 13 or 14-inch MacBooks), scrolling through the notes feels a bit uncomfortable, even though the video itself doesn’t take up much space.”

Sebastian P.

Head of Digital Transformation

“The only thing I’d mention is that sometimes the transcriptions aren’t 100% perfect, especially if there’s background noise or multiple speakers talking over each other. But it’s minor, and the tool is still way ahead of manually taking notes!”

Sathupheap C.
