All together vs Altogether

All together
All together means everyone or everything together.
It's time to sing. All together now!
Altogether
Altogether is an adverb and means "all in all," "all told," or "completely."
That was altogether too difficult.
The Bottom Line
If you can replace the term with something like "completely" or "when all is said and done," you are altogether better off with altogether. If you can rewrite the sentence to use all and together separately, the term you want is all together.
