## Reviews

### "Long time partners" — 4.0/5

> **Nada** | *29 June 2023* | Defense & Space | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There are a few features that I love about the software so far: 1. very flexible.  There are so many fields to add as much or as little data as you need to each module.2. For the exception of shop floor and data collection, all their modules are included in the price for the license.3. Existing reports such as the open order report, have so much information to be able to manage at a higher level with all the critical details available at your fingertips, so you don't have to go digging around  to find info.4. The customer support and especially the canteens that they host are wonderful. They are able to work with you to help resolve issues you're having with the software and sometimes just the method or process. The Genius team is knowledgeable, so they are able to give solutions based on industry standards as well.
> 
> **Cons**: There are some fields that don't actually connect to anything sometimes. These get fixed during upgrades, but without having someone on staff that really understands how a database works and can go look at the background structure to find the links, you are having to rely heavily on the Genius team.
> 
> We have been with Genius since 2008\! We are a medium sized flex manufacturing company. It's been an exciting journey for us as our resources were limited during implementation, so we had a rough start, however, over the last 5 years, we have been working with Genius to get the most out of our software and the team has been great to work with. I love the canteens\! we have been able to get Realtime support from the team as well as other customers of Genius. We all share our best practices. The webinars are wonderful as well. We are getting ready to transition to V15 and our whole team has been excited about this.

### "A long transition" — 4.0/5

> **Michelle** | *03 September 2024* | Industrial Automation | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: \* User Friendly&#10;\* Little difficulty to wrap your head around how things work and why they work that way. &#10;\* Customizable&#10;\* Quick customer support&#10;\* Easily visible information&#10;\* Saw financial benefits within first year
> 
> **Cons**: \* Difficult to transition from 50+ years of another way&#10;\* The French to English translations&#10;\* Long transition process for our company
> 
> Transitioning was a very difficult process for us. Using language and tools we'd been using for over 50 years and trying to sync it up with a general manufacturing software was quite a challenge. We are still making progress and within the first year we started to see financial benefits to the transition. Switching to an ERP is never easy, but Genius was and is with us along the way.

### "High Power, High Effort" — 4.0/5

> **Gargi** | *27 June 2026* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Love that it looks at current orders and alerts our teams when stock is low. This prevents us from running out of stock of essential inventories
> 
> **Cons**: Managing quality control is a bit of a trouble with this software as there are identical items with identical names which confuses the system many of the times.

### "Making my custom builds more structured and easier to trace" — 3.0/5

> **Recebe** | *08 April 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: From the above analysis, it is clear that the approach of Genius ERP in managing engineering documents in production is unique. I upload my design files, and they are quickly and easily accessed throughout the whole job This reduces the number of emails exchanged between the design department and the floor.
> 
> **Cons**: I have come across slow loading of the data whenever more than one person works on the same work order. This leads to such a problem where updates are not seen by everyone at once which may lead to multiple editing or confusion.

-----

### "Massive business anchor with high power workflow" — 4.0/5

> **John** | *18 June 2026* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The thing that amazed me the most about Genius ERP was how it unified customer support, sales history, and communication logs in one place, so everyone always knows the status of an account.
> 
> **Cons**: Transferring decades of old information from messy spreadsheets into this clean system took us a very long time and caused major delays
> 
> The final verdict is that Genius ERP is a massive, long term commitment that will reshape how our organization is run by completely transforming our efficiency.
