Genius Solutions vs. Zoho One

Genius is well suited to our fabrication business as it covers all sections that need to be addressed in one program e.g. shipping, receiving, Sales orders, Purchase orders, invoicing, Employee clocking times from the scanning machine. easy to navigate between modules where needed once you know how.

Zoho One helps me to create and document each of my closures by creating deals. Zoho One helps me to generate reports, which helps me to track my contact. Zoho One helps me on creating tasks and reminds me to get it done on time. Zoho One keeps each steps and actions I took from lead to a deal.

• Customization of reports can be costly.
• In my opinion the Quality section is not as good as we expected.
• For Customization we need Power BI knowledge

• In my opinion, SUPPORT IS AWFUL!!!
• If you want to get in touch with a support representative, your best bet is to call the sales number and demand to speak with an agent.
• Each of the tools operates in a silo, from a support perspective. Some applications, like books, have chat-based support and others require an e-mail.
• In my experience, expect any e-mail to the main support e-mail to go unanswered.
• The first year of support was great, but after we renewed for the second year, it has become terrible.

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.

ZOHO is very easy to use. All you need to do is follow the steps and features aligned in it. ZOHO doesn't need complex coding or training; anyone can easily access and use it. You may feel a bit of difficulty initially, but show me an easy tool when you are using it for the first time.

Support is great as a customer, as a partner I get moved to that team more often and find issues in the support being provided. It also appears that the support agents do not take into account all the information provided and default back to the "step 1 of the playbook" instead of taking into account the business reason the support is being requested and understanding the steps already taken.

Genius had a far better implementation team and had everything we were looking for without having to super customize a product. The implementation was also far easier than expected due to their ability to manipulate spreadsheets and import them in. We are glad we went with Genius due to the flow of the software and the syncable database. The main thing missed about Quickbooks is the ability to easily fix mistakes by deleting transactions or edit them even after they posted. This however made financials less reliable

The primary reason we switched from Daylite is when we started using Virtual Assistants and wanted a cloud based alternative which Daylite didn't provide. We left MYOB when I think it stopped supporting Apple computers. We left AccountEdge when it stopped supporting payroll tax tables for Apple computers. Thankfully, each time we left one software company we were led to Zoho and have remained ever since.

• Tracking job costs makes it easy to see where we are in the projects.
• We save a lot of time for the production of "repeat" jobs.
• With job tracking from start to finish, we can easily schedule deliveries.

• Projects is a lifeline for the onboarding team, as it does the major heavy lifting in onboarding project management
• Data flow between apps is a must have for contextual information to pass on between teams
• In terms of ROI, it happens much quicker compared to having multiple apps to do the job, as Zoho One is a lot cheaper than having many tools.
