That’s where NetSuite comes in. NetSuite is a cloud-based ERP (enterprise resource planning) solution designed specifically for fast-growing mid-sized organizations. It provides a unified platform to manage key business operations in one place—eliminating silos and improving efficiency.
In this post, we’ll explore the key benefits NetSuite offers growing businesses and why it’s a smart investment as you scale.
Automates Core Business Processes
NetSuite automates core processes like accounting, HR, inventory management, order processing, billing, fulfillment, reporting, planning and budgeting. It connects data across departments into a single version of the truth, enabling real-time reporting and intelligent decision making.
As you add more customers, products, locations and employees, NetSuite grows with you. You avoid having to cobble together disparate systems that don’t communicate with each other.
For example, when an order comes in, NetSuite automatically updates inventory records, creates an invoice, calculates sales commission, and sends shipping notifications without any manual work across multiple systems. This eliminates double data entry, ensures accuracy, and accelerates order turnaround times even during periods of rapid growth.
Unified Customer View
With NetSuite, all customer information is stored in one place—from contact details and order history to communications and support tickets. Every department sees the same 360-degree customer view instead of creating their own disjointed records.
This single unified database helps ensure consistent, personalized service across all touchpoints. As you scale, having a single view of every customer helps you retain that “small business” feel despite growing in size.
Flexible Reporting and Metrics
NetSuite’s built-in reporting, KPIs and analytics enable growing businesses to measure results and performance. You can easily monitor standard reports like the income statement, balance sheet, accounts receivable, sales pipelines, and project profitability.
You can also customize reports and dashboards for any business metric you want to track without relying on IT. Identify trends, see where to improve, and track progress toward goals. As you scale, NetSuite grows with your changing reporting needs.
Omnichannel Commerce
NetSuite powers multiple online and offline sales channels from a single platform, including:
- Ecommerce website
- Brick-and-mortar POS
- Call center
- Mobile app
- Online marketplaces
- Social media
It provides a unified commerce experience where inventory, pricing, and order management is synchronized across all channels. This omnichannel capability lets you expand sales channels seamlessly as you grow without having to invest in separate systems.
Improves Visibility and Control
As businesses scale, they can lose visibility into day-to-day operations. Spreadsheets and manual processes quickly become chaotic. NetSuite automates processes and provides real-time dashboards, reports, and notifications so you always know what’s happening.
With all departments using the same system, you gain visibility across the organization. Unauthorized purchases or inventory allocations get flagged. Brent contracts come to your attention. You’re notified when inventory runs low. You have control even as business complexity increases.
Flexibility and Customization
NetSuite allows extensive customization to adapt to your unique business needs without expensive coding. You can customize:
- – Fields, forms, records, reports, and process workflows
- Roles, permissions, and access for different users
- Rules for transactions, approvals, alerts, and notifications
- Data validation to prevent errors
- User interface with custom branding, terminology, menus, and pages
These customizations carry over seamlessly as you grow so the system continues meeting your needs over time. NetSuite also integrates smoothly with other applications you’re running.
Scalable Cloud Infrastructure
NetSuite runs on enterprise-class servers managed within highly secure data centers. The infrastructure easily scales up (or down) as your business grows (or contracts). You avoid large upfront IT investments in hardware since NetSuite maintains everything in the cloud.
The system is accessible from anywhere via desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Employees can work remotely—an essential capability amidst COVID-19. Your data is automatically backed up and protected against disasters. You get guaranteed 99.5% uptime.
NetSuite frees you to focus on growing your business without worrying about managing technology.
Cross-Company Transparency
Large enterprises often operate multiple subsidiaries, business units, and locations. NetSuite OneWorld provides real-time roll-up reporting and drill-down across the entire organization.
You can view performance by subsidiary, product line, region, department, or any business dimension. Manage financial consolidation, currency conversion, taxation rules, reporting, and multi-language requirements from headquarters across all your locations.
OneWorld lets growing companies scale while maintaining transparency from the parent down to the smallest remote office.
