Pros
This ERP is very fast and user friendly. You can easily make custom reports with it.

Not as customizable as big ERP like Epicor. Some reports or other functionalities may stop working after an upgrade... I encourage you to test every new version thoroughly before updating your production server.

The best part of genius is the ability to do scheduling
Genius is a great program for smaller companies who need to step up their ERP program, but are not yet able to have a completely personalised program made for them. It addresses all aspects of the manufacturing process, from the bill of material to billing the finished product.
Pros
The best part of genius is the ability to do scheduling
Cons
Personalised reports are difficult to deal with when doing updates of the program. Things that work fine in one version suddenly disappear in the next. And their customer service definately needs updated. It takes way to long to settle problems that are being had with the program. **Developer Response:** Hi Lisa, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review! I'm happy to hear that you think our ERP is great and that it is really helping with your scheduling! I'm sorry that you are having some issues with our customized reports - I will forward your concerns to our product team. We are always striving to improve our product, so thank you for the valuable feedback. - Jesse Linklater, Director of Marketing

It is a slightly dated look, and required 5 or more steps for data manipulation.

For smaller businesses with complex operations this is not the software
For smaller businesses with complex operations this is not the software I would recommend. It is best suited for the accountant and not the entire company.
Pros
We have used this software for 5 years and its hard to think of much we like about it. The amount of information you can provide about a product is the only thing that sticks out.
Cons
The ability to make customized reports. The errors all appear in french instead of english. When consuming material if it appears more than once in a BOM it does not provide a running total of material left available.
