What has to be true
Attio treats CRM as a flexible data workspace. Teams can model companies, people and custom objects cleanly, but the buyer must know what it wants the system to become.

How the product behaves in practice
Where the work sits

How to evaluate it
Test reporting depth, permission boundaries, enrichment limits and the effort needed to reproduce your executive forecast.
