User Testimonials
	Fathom	Float Cash Flow
Likelihood to Recommend	The Access Group I always ask if the other attendees are ok with my using the app. If they were not comfortable, I would turn it off. This is likely over-cautious, but I also am hesitant to use it in extremely sensitive and confidential conversations. I use it as often as possible and am heavily reliant on it for any status meetings where there might be action items for any attendee, etc Incentivized Leila Blauner Founder Read full review	Float Yard Ltd Float is great for a startup/small (< 20 employee companies) that have limited resources for keeping an eye on cash flow. Yes, you could hire a contractor CFO, but it would simply be less expensive to use Float and educate yourself a bit about cash flow. For larger companies I feel like you would have a dedicated financial controller or CFO that may already have tools they are familiar with, but this service might also still be useful.

Cons	The Access Group Honestly I do not have any Cons to add. Incentivized Samantha Bowling, CPA CGMA Owner Read full review	Float Yard Ltd Quickbooks integration could be improved to automatically include recurring transactions. Pricing is a little steep for smaller businesses. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Support Rating	The Access Group I have not used customer support. Incentivized Samantha Bowling, CPA CGMA Owner Read full review	Float Yard Ltd No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	The Access Group otter is audio only, and doesn't monitor things like talk time. Both systems have great (relatively new) AI features. Fathom's is a little more functional (templates for notes that can be swapped out after the meeting. Otter's is a little more useful with the AI chat feature and the summaries are a bit stronger Incentivized Leila Blauner Founder Read full review	Float Yard Ltd No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	The Access Group it saved us few hours a month to prepare consolidated reports. it made is easy to understand the financials with visuals Integration with Xero also made it much accurate Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Float Yard Ltd We've had a positive ROI since we're able to take bigger risks now that we understand how much cash will be in our account on what day. We are able to make adjustments to our contractors and services to grow our business faster. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
