**Reviewed by:** Pradum K. | Software Associate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 11, 2022

**What do you like best about Gensym?**

I have been using G2 for the past few months, Firstly I used it for checking a particular Software review then I also gave a few reviews for the software I use. After giving the reviews came to know that the process to review is so fair that no false review can be entered, The team evaluates the reviews manually and not all the reviews are accepted they have some strict criteria.

Not much to dislike, but the scope for improvement is that the Dashboards of the software should be claimed by the owners so that the review goes to the correct team or person who owns it so that the changes can be made if required.

Whenever I want to purchase any software I check reviews on G2 because I find Reviews here legitimate and not false that are verified by G2 team having some criteria they follow.

  ### 5. Connex for Quickbooks - Used with ShipStation

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Allen C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 07, 2020

**What do you like best about Gensym?**

We have been using Connex for Quickbooks to sync orders from ShipStation into QuickBooks for several years. It has reduced our Sales Receipt error rate to zero. We are a small business and would not have been able to accomplish what we have without it. It sync’s several stores in ShipStation into Quickbooks. I was able to customize the import so the created Sales Receipt is complete and requires no further data entry. The software is set to automatically import orders from ShipStation every 30 minutes.

**What do you dislike about Gensym?**

Occasionally an order does not import into QuickBooks and I am forced to log into Connex for Quickbooks and manually identify the order and tell Connex to import  it.

**Recommendations to others considering Gensym:**

I originally set up Connex for QuickBooks myself but G2 seems responsive and I would recommend having G2 help set up the integration rules.

**What problems is Gensym solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We had issues with too much labor involved with getting orders into QuickBooks and the associated error rates that go with manual data entry. That has all been eliminated.

**What problems is Gensym solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Getting the best answer within a fixed time to process decisions. The flows are decent and gets you the best possible decision.
