Overall Satisfaction with NetSuite ERP

NetSuite ERP is mainly a manufacturing tool to monitor inventory levels and manage builds (plan and execute work orders). It is also used for simple accounting purposes and expense reporting.

Pros

  • Customizable reports
  • Customizable forms
  • Ability to make modifications without knowing how to code

Cons

  • The ability to adjust the format of forms is limited
  • Customizing roles is difficult; there should be a way to select the menu bars, not just the features
  • Logging in as administrator is very tedious
  • Negative ROI; would have been better with a different ERP
  • Seems very new with a lot of missing functionality
  • Poor customer support
Price won out but we should have gone with IQMS in the end because of the functionality.
I think it's OK for retail companies but not acceptable for any companies that do their own in-house manufacturing. It doesn't have a proper lot numbering capability, which makes it necessary to monitor lot numbers outside of NetSuite ERP to prevent duplication. Also, new items do not have an external ID number unless they are imported via CSV import. This makes it difficult to update all items at one time.
