### "I started using less than a year ago and I don't know how we ever got along without it!"

July 14, 2017

5.0

RIO Genesis has helped us to organize easily in one platform. It so easy to customize that we are able to use it for all types of business including REO and corporate, Commercial and retail residential. The contact management is great and integrates easily for communication and notes between all parties in a transaction. I especially like that we can allow access to certain but not all parts of the same file. For example, an assistant can have access to specific on a file to work on, like contract & lender information, but no access to the client's contact information unless given access by the lead agent. No worries about client privacy issues or an agent getting a client list and moving to another firm!

Pros

we are able to integrate both REO and retail listings and customize easily the contact management is great because it allows us to sort contacts by type (business client vs homeowner) and allows for notes on files and contacts

Cons

Set up of data input can be tedious and it really requires set up to work properly. But thats not an issue with the software, that's just laziness. Once you've input your information everything works like clockwork

### "RIO Changed the trajectory of my business!"

November 15, 2016

5.0

RIO Genesis has given me the ability to streamline all of the processes of my business in one easy to use online system. I was used to tracking by spreadsheet and email for 10 plus years before I implemented RIO Genesis into my daily routine. I was an old school broker who didn't want to change my ways because they worked for me. The RIO support team cared about my business and worked with me for the transition. To this day they are always available any time I need their assistance. I can now manage my business between the two states I practice in without the stress of missing a step which gives me the freedom to hustle up more business and get a little down time in for myself because I have the extra time on hand from eliminating extra, useless steps in every task at hand! Thank you so much! Top notch system with quality support!

Pros

Ability to organize information on each transaction, online access, storage system for documents and photos, and I can track the progress of each employee in the system.

### "Rio leaves more to desire "

July 27, 2021

3.0

Pros

It has the customer’s information that we need in order to service and assist them

Cons

It’s very finicky to work with and is super frustrating. In order to update a clients current package you have to go into a complete different program that is often having issues.

### "Best Real Estate Software out there!"

November 10, 2016

5.0

My office has been using RIO Genesis for several years. We find that it is easy to use and keeps all of our documents in order. The staff has it open all day long adding to it then in the mornings I come in and run a few reports and I can see exactly what my staff accomplished yesterday. It's fantastic. Over the years there has been questions about something or the other, the customer service is quick to respond and either give me the answer or find a solution to my problem. I use several platforms in my real estate business, equator, resnet, dispo/exceleras, pyramid, Freddie, etc and I find that RIO gives me much more information and is a great platform for all of my real estate needs.

Pros

It's easy to use and stores all of the information that we need to complete a real estate transaction.

Cons

Non at this time.

### "Easy to use System for my Real Estate Office "

November 15, 2016

5.0

Rio Genesis is a great software system. Our office and team members have been using it now for several years and we dont know what we'd do without it. We are able to assign tasks through the portal, stay on track with timelines, and track our expenses. The system has so many functions and features that NO other system has. In addition, there is a Vault that stores your file after you close for a minimal fee, which allows the Brokers to stay in compliance.

Pros

has a lot of different features makes things easier for real estate agent and staff easy to use

November 16, 2016

5.0

We have been an active user of the RIO Genesis System for well over 3 years now. It has progressively updated to become one of our main sources of REO tracking, follow up and offer receipt portals. If you're in the market for a system that will meet and exceed your needs, look no further.

Pros

Ease of use is stellar and works on all systems.

Cons

Setup and training can be confusing for some clients who are new to products.

The RIO Genesis platform is ideal for multi faceted real estate offices working with various corporate clients. It can be a mess when clients all are on different operational methods and systems. RIO bring some stability to an unstable business. Highly recommend it.
