The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Fathom team plan requires minimum 2 users; cannot purchase single seat at team pricing; Lattice a $4,000 minimum annual agreement applies, so the per seat prices only describe the cost above that floor
  • They diverge on capability: Fathom covers Auto-recording, Lattice covers Performance reviews.

Fathom

  • Team plan requires minimum 2 users; cannot purchase single seat at team pricing
  • CRM field sync and deal view summaries available only on Business plan ($34/user/month) and above

Lattice

  • A $4,000 minimum annual agreement applies, so the per seat prices only describe the cost above that floor
  • Billing is annual only
  • The platform is sold as three separate base products at $10, $8 and $4 per seat per month, so a full deployment stacks rather than being one price
  • Compensation and Grow are further add ons at $6 and $4 per seat per month on top
