About Genius ERP

Genius ERP is a complete enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution that includes software, implementation services and field expertise for small to mid-sized custom manufacturers. For over 30 years, Genius ERP has been the trusted choice for engineer-to-order, custom-to-order, make-to-order and assemble-to-order manufacturers. Genius ERP gives custom manufacturers the tools they need to increase productivity and reduce costs.

Long time partners

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.

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.

Response from Genius Solutions

A long transition

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.

Pros

* User Friendly
* Little difficulty to wrap your head around how things work and why they work that way.
* Customizable
* Quick customer support
* Easily visible information
* Saw financial benefits within first year

Cons

* Difficult to transition from 50+ years of another way
* The French to English translations
* Long transition process for our company

Reasons for Choosing Genius ERP

PBS is an antiquated system that no longer met the needs of our company. It was very difficult for younger people to understand.
