Aptean Discrete Manufacturing ERP Made2Manage Edition vs Genius ERP: Which is best for you?

As long as you have an IT professional that can customize reports, the sky is the limit with this program.

Has a steep learning curve and most basic computer literacy skills rarely translate into this system (e.g. wildcard search is a "%" symbol instead of an asterisk "*", or when running a report you must click a "display" button instead of "run", etc.).

The stand-out feature to me was the linking of the bill-of-materials to the routing. When I have settled on the BOM suggestions for routing and resource allocation are offered without my having to switch between modules, thus cutting my planning stage time.

It happens when I have multiple progress billing stages on one job: it simply takes too much of setting up in the system, and it slows me down a lot in the accounting.
