VP Engineering Railroad Manufacture Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Genius ERP in Small Manufacturing Business" September 2, 2020 4.0 Pros We were operating without any form of ERP or similar software, so the switch was not such an easy task! Genius made it easy for us by visiting and analyzing our needs and capabilities from the start. The training sessions before our Go Live date were well organized and tailored to our needs and methodologies. Cons With less than a year in, we are now at the point of using the data that has been recorded in Genius for forecasting and reporting purposes, and this part may be a little less intuitive. Anybody with SQL experience could easily find their way, but not our case at the moment. Review Source Response from Genius Solutions October 8, 2020 Hi Francois, I'm really glad that you found our implementation process to go well for you getting a new ERP is no easy task!

Financial controller Environmental Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Low cost tool that is "okay" for little businesses" April 7, 2020 3.0 Genius is not the best tool to follow inventory movements with custom reports (as SAP does it very well). It would be usefull to get features improved for that. Pros The low cost of annual license (compare to SAP or ORACLE) is the best argument to use Genius as we Don't have budget to use more expensive Tools like SAP or ORACLE. Cons It's very hard in Genius to follow inventory movements with custom reports with all relevant information in exportable format (Excel). For exemple, in SAP there is a transaction MB51 that is so usefull to produce custom reports to follow items with many parameters. Review Source Response from Genius Solutions May 8, 2020 Thanks for leaving us a review I want you to know that we take customer feedback seriously, especially when it shows us where we have room for improvement.

Their confidence allowed us to 'trust' Genius and really dig-in to make it work across our company departments. Genius is good on visuals as well as text. Cons no way to print the ms project display from work order management status scheduling fractures operation time, sometimes into seconds, split over a dozen different moments or even days? not enough smart-tags or hyperlink functions; I have to keep 8 different pages open all the time to get complete information. too many French terms left untranslated too much reliance on reports rather than displays Review Source MA Marion A.

Pros Everything is well connected, improve the budget control.Great to manage customer prepaiements.

En gros le logiciel va très bien.On vient de l'implanter le 5 juin donc c'est tout nouveau et on n'a pas terminer d'apprendre ;) Cons La chose que je trouve vraiment déplaisant est que comparativement à notre ancien logiciel on ne peut pas sélectionner la personne à qui on veut envoyer une commande . Il devrait y a avoir une bande déroulante des contacts du fournisseur à qui on fait la commande Review Source MO Mike O. President Machinery Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Support" July 12, 2019 5.0 We have really just begun to capture some data, but advantages so far are job costing, tracking/scheduling, and analysis. Pros Easy to navigate, comprehensive data collection and analysis. Cons Some fields are not readily searchable, or smart. Many softwares today allow you start typing and it knows what you are looking for - making recommendation or gray line filling in so you can simply hit enter.
