Microsoft 365 Copilot vs. Fathom by The Access Group

I highly recommend its usage in Teams meetings to prepare a session transcript, meeting minutes,
next steps and recognize speech by person. Also within the meeting recording, there is separation between the people talking at the time. The Copilot image creation is very accurate and useful to
customize my PowerPoint presentations and other documents

Report could be used in any industry but when it comes to functionality, it is more suitable businesses where there are not many division. I found it hard for Fathom to extract Xero tracking data and to represent it in the financials. If you would like to consolidate the financials, I also find it easy to do it via Fathom

• The quality of image generation in Microsoft Copilot could be improved. Compared to other AI platforms, Copilot's images often fall short in quality and frequently contain typos.
• When generating agents and chatbots, Microsoft Copilot currently doesn't appear to support file download functionality.
• The email reply function is useful, but the responses can sometimes be overly elaborate. It would be helpful to have more options for adjusting the tone.

• If you have multiple divisions within the business, reporting/budgeting by division are not as good as induvial reports.

it is nearly perfect and it’s usability one of the main factors and contributing to the score is how versatile this tool is. it is vastly usable in a multitude of circumstances, and has a few limitations, but overall this product works well for what it is intended. It is very helpful for some otherwise time consuming tasks.

Great dashboards and very easy to use.

I think It lost the race for now. I don't think Microsoft will keep investing on it since we have better tools outside their environment. In my opinion, Microsoft Copilot is not even in the benchmark tools and in the race for AGI. I think Microsoft is way behind and Microsoft Copilot suffered the lack of investment like the one made by its competitors.

We also used Spotlight reporting before we tried out Fathom and we found Fathom much easier to navigate and Xero integration, consolidation are very strong feature of the product. Spotlight reporting is similar to Fathom however, Fathom is more flexible, there are better visual reports and grafts and we found it easier to customize the reports templates. You can also share the reports with multiple group of people online.

• Copilot has had a huge positive impact on my productivity. My job requires a lot of author and customer interaction, so since I use Copilot, I dont need to spend hours in my workday answering emails.
• Copilot has also helped with my data analysis skills. I use the data analysis to create proposals and I have noticed a significant increase in project approvals after I have started using Copilot.
• One of the business objectives of my company is to create high quality education resources. Since Copilot is integrated across platforms and departments in all office locations across the world, it has helped streamline operations in my company. This has definitely supported in achieving this objective.
