Pros from Real Users Pros As someone who spends nearly every day on Zoom calls, Fathom has truly been a game-changer for me. It seamlessly integrates with my meetings and provides invaluable insights that make my day-to-day so much more productive. Fathom records my Zoom meetings automatically, which is a huge time-saver. I never have to worry about forgetting to hit record or losing important details. The highlights feature is particularly useful; it captures key moments of the meeting, so I can easily jump back to specific parts without scrubbing through the entire recording. The transcription is accurate, and the search function makes it so much easier to find exactly what I need. It also integrates well with my existing workflow, which has made a huge difference in reducing friction.		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Good web presence. Perhaps is a good product, if only the company would upgrade me to the level that I paid for 3 months ago. The interface is very easy to use. I can drag and drop many files at once and it will notify me when they are complete. Cons These techies have their email and web so protected by an AI Great Wall that there is no way to contact them. I paid $100 for their "Pro" on Sept 19 2021, but have yet to get the upgrade on Dec 15!!! Innumerable emails and. "support requests" have. only been answered by AI bots that do not understand English. Their "support" is nonexistent!!!! I have been using this platform for a few years now and have no complaints about it!
