The Reporting Software Fathom Users Switch To
A live spreadsheet-style report builder, deeper template customization, and a US based support team that works for you as the client. See why accounting firms and advisory teams choose Reach Reporting.
Why Teams Switch
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone
These are the top reasons Fathom users move to Reach Reporting and why they wish they'd switched sooner.
Reports Built From Fixed Layouts
Fathom's report editor works from a set structure of charts and tables. When a client needs something outside that structure, you're stuck. Reach gives you a spreadsheet-style builder to create exactly what each client needs, from scratch or from a template.
Multi-Entity Consolidation Gets Complicated Fast
Fathom users report it works well for a handful of companies, then gets difficult to manage once a group grows past that. Reach handles multi-entity consolidation with automatic currency conversion, whether you're rolling up five entities or fifty.
A Learning Curve Before Things Click
New Fathom users often mention a real ramp-up period before the breadth of features starts to make sense. Reach includes 1:1 onboarding with real people, so your team is building useful reports in the first session, not the third.
