Top Rated InfoGenesis POS Alternatives
The diverse functionality of InfoGenesis is outstanding. There are so many ways to customize the product to the needs of the individual business and the support team is on call 24/7 making it easy to ask questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the updated versions have caused issues in our venues because the functions were not tested thoroughly. Also, the new Electronic Journal isn't as detailed as it has been in previous versions but I know this is also related to the new PCI laws. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Infogenesis was a great POS system to integrate things like room charges as a form of payment and also for splitting checks or quickly adding an item to ring in that may not have been prepopulated. I was a former AGM in a lounge/restaurant setting where I used InfoGen daily prior to moving my career into PM/Digital Marketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the employee card swiping would not function properly - for manager authorizations, etc causing a manual input. Not sure if that was a hardware versus software issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Software is very detailed to use. Can produce some great reports to use. Best software to use in the hospitality business these days as it is structured around that market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One thing that I dislike is it is you have to get used to the software. At first time use it is not the easiest to navigate through. Overall great software just need to be easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Infogenisis is a great POS system as is allows you to stay on the page after sending a ticket. I’ve used others where it closes and you have to log back in each time to do another task. I also like that you can use a credit card in the system as well as start running tabs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I’d rather use touch screen vs card log into the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Infogenesis is very user friendly. It is very easy to find what you need. New/unexperienced users are able to comprehend the software and easily figure it out. The graphics are great. Easy to identify the items you are searching for.
The left pane with the different tabs is very convenient. You can go from Home Screen to Tender screen in less than a second. Knowing where everything is located is beneficial for fast and easy transactions.
Also, when it comes to Tendering, it is very simple to process credit cards, room charge, internal tenders. You basically authorize and accept a credit card, room charge, etc. authorization. It is easy to correct a mistake if it made during this phase. The proper tools are provided for corrections: Void, Refund, Reopen a check. It is very convenient for the Guest to be able to have corrections made the same day of the transaction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Electronic Journal used to be more detailed. It is understandable it has changed because of PCI compliance. It is a great to tool to understand what happens in the lifespan of a check.
As an administrator, we use Universal Desktop to make the changes on the POS. It would be helpful to make a one time login for a certain amount of time (2 hrs or so). After a certain amount of minutes it tends to log the user off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ease of configuration, and the support.. As a long time property administrator I have seen the system grow with casino community. It is a perfect solution in our environment because our cashiers move from outlet to outlet within the shift. Also, the system is very secure. The permissions module that has been developed over the years has allowed us to maintain control while giving the cash handlers the tools to best serve our guests.

There are third party vendors that we have tried to work with over the years, but it has been dfficult due to the proprietary code of IG. Also we are expereincing challenges with hardware solutions that will support the new PCI environment in our business. Sig caps in gourmet dining needs a hardware solution that works with the expereince. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I've used this from both a front end user and back end programmer perspective. Being trained as a front end user was quite simple and easy to pick up. The programming side was also straight forward with the GUI interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There was some functionality on the back end that caused some issues while programming the screens. Those were all escalated to the product development department. Other than that, whenever the system went down, that was troublesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
