Overall the system is simple and easy to manage. We are very happy with our selection.

Pros

we love the integration with Meraki Cameras

Cons

i do not like that I cannot manage my own card formats. when we started transitioning to Genea we had a lot of different card formats across the country. it would have been really nice to decode and add the card formats so we would not have to re-deploy thousands of cards

The overall experience is great. The Genea team from sales to support has always been on top of things, providing quick solutions.

Pros

Genea is really use to use and you can manage all you access door remotely. The UI is very simple and you can also use the app to have full control.

Cons

Some times I have difficulty with the quick shake to open feature. It works in some access points but not in others.

I like how smooth the app runs and how easy it is to register. The admin functionalities are good too, but I would love some more analytics.

Pros

I love how simple it is, easy to use. There is no room for confusion when registering for access.

Cons

Missing features such as being able to register earlier than on the day of arrival, etc.

Good. The team is extremely knowledgeable and supports our team well when it comes to technology. We could use more support with our deployments, currently, we are deploying multiple locations. It is obvious the Genea project management team is stretched thin

Pros

Ease of use, ease of credential deployment, and ease of system management.

Cons

Less control on the back end. Seems we need to rely on Genea to make Mercury required changed for us.
