Ways they are different:

Genn is from Gilneas. Sylvanas is not from Lordaeron.

Genn never invaded anyone's home, murdered their children, and turned their people into slime with a disease so toxic even the Horde doesn't want it used. Sylvanas has.

Genn just wanted Gilneas to be left alone. Sylvanas has deliberately expanded the rotting corpse of Lordaeron into territories that were never part of it, using the Lich King's minions to raise dead people into the same cursed state she herself bemoans and complains incessantly about.

Genn never took anyone's family hostage and threatened to turn them into monsters. Sylvanas has.

Genn didn't force the worgen curse on his immediate enemies and enslave them. Sylvanas has forcibly raised several figures (including Lord Godfrey) who clearly not only did not want to be Forsaken, but even turned on her for doing it.

There's more but I think that's enough.
