Genius Solutions vs. WinMan ERP Software

Genius is great for analysis data using Microsoft products like Power BI or Excel as it links directly to them. Genius has also helped the work flow of our company a lot by streamlining processes. One process that helps our company a lot is the ability to print all work orders and fabrication/assembly plans in their batch printing module. Printing these would take up to five hours per assembly in Quickbooks and it now takes 10 minutes.

Winman ERP is well suited to our business and we have not felt the need to look further. The great strength for us is the MRP facility but each business is unique and must make it's own assessment. The accounting side just works - nothing to add here.

• The production is simple and efficient, this is done directly from our 3D design software (SolidWorks).
• Technical support is efficient, when problems arise, solutions are provided quickly.
• The monitoring of production costs is clear and easy to consult.

• MRP - our inventory forecasting is done within Winman using the MRP facility. This allows us to place timely orders with our suppliers.
• Inventory transfers and value uplifts (to reflect actual landed cost) are simply catered for and fully integrated into the accounting system.
• Integration with our website ensures that accurate data flows throughout the whole process.

• Support hours (now, from 8h00 to 17h00, Monday to Friday).
• The info with help button (F1) to be more easy to find.

• Having used Winman ERP for a long time now it fully suits our needs.

Genius is easy to use but you have to male sure it's set up properly. You also have to make sure you understand what an ERP should do to know the right questions to ask when you contact customer support.

Having used Winman ERP for many years through various iterations we have not felt the need to look elsewhere

• Being able to track time, cost of outside services and cost of materials has allowed us to trust the accuracy of our product markups and prices.
• Improved inventory control allows us to get products out quicker.
• The ability to sync the database with Power BI has allowed up to have a better picture of our financials and projected cashflow.

• The key thing is to be able to do more with less people, removing as much repetitive work as possible.
• More automation allows us to grow the business whilst being able to concentrate on core competencies that cannot be automated such as product development, branding and marketing.
• Inventory planning is simplified through the use of MRP. Top level skus are readily converted into POs for timely component procurement which means we have the best opportunity to fill sales orders.
