Some of the testimonials shared by our customers on Capterra include:

Genius – Great Manufacturing ERP Software

Pros: Our whole manufacturing process is managed including inventory control. I really like that the team can look into a job and figure out at what stage certain items are at in the manufacturing process. The engineering side is great, and allows our team not to have to do duplicate entries. This also ensures that there is much less human error since the items are imported directly from Inventor to the Engineering Document. This in turn is transferred to the job. From the quoting side, we were doing our small quotes manually previously, and now we quote within the system and then when a PO is given we convert it. Therefor no extra entry is needed.

Great Software and Functionality at a fraction of Big ERP Cost!

Pros: Having been in ERP space for 30+ years in Manufacturing Environments, I can attest that Genius ERP provides very robust functionality at a very competitive price. From BOM to Engineering Lifecycle to MRP and MPS, it really does it all. Their training is straightforward and their support is excellent! They also have scheduled “talk with an expert” sessions (~2x week) that enable you to get quick responses on issues of functionality. Being Cloud hosted means you don’t have to invest in the infrastructure and sleep at night knowing your data is safe. Their security is as robust or simple as you’d like it to be. Lastly, if you’re familiar with SQL databases, they have a very nice interface through their own Analytics Product and Power BI. Other nice features: Downloads of views of data to excel, Export/Import of major data sources; Robust custom fields; Report export to Excel, PDF, etc..; REST API to enable web based integrations.

A Genius Fit for Custom Manufacturers

Pros: The integration by far was the most seamless and easy process that we’ve gone through with an ERP implementation. Being a custom manufacturer, we needed an ERP designed for our type of business. From CAD to BOM capability, preliminary purchasing of long lead time parts, scheduling using the drum-buffer-rope method and the ability to access data for metrics and data driven process control, Genius had it all!

About the Capterra Shortlist

The Capterra Shortlist is an independent assessment that identifies the top products in the enterprise resource planning (ERP) software category based on a proprietary blend of user ratings and popularity. Capterra empowers businesses to accelerate their growth by helping them find the right software and selects and ranks products based on an objective methodology developed by their research team.

The Capterra Shortlist plots the top products on a chart, allowing buyers to easily see which products are strongest on each component. The chart view acknowledges the nuance and individuality of buyer preferences and makes it easier for buyers to discover the best software for their needs.

The Capterra Shortlist methodology scores vendors on two dimensions: User Ratings and Popularity.

1. The Ratings component is plotted on the X-axis and considers the overall user ratings of products based on reviews written in the last 24 months. Users rate products on a scale of 1 star (lowest) to 5 stars (highest).
2. The Popularity component is plotted on the Y-axis and considers average monthly search volume for a standardized set of keywords for each product, as derived by a proprietary search methodology, as well as the position of the vendor’s domain on the search engine results page (SERP) for each keyword. This is a measure of user interest and relevance used as a proxy for popularity.

Each score (Ratings and Popularity) is weighted and scaled to a value between 1-50.
