The verdict

Choose Fathom if

  • You need advisory-focused practices
  • Genuinely client-presentable output
  • Good KPI and benchmarking depth

Choose LiveFlow if

  • You need firms that build reports in spreadsheets
  • Keeps existing spreadsheet templates alive
  • Good multi-entity consolidation

What to watch either way

  • Fathom: Only as good as the underlying ledger
  • LiveFlow: Still a spreadsheet, not a dashboard

Testing them
