Overall Satisfaction with NetSuite ERP

We are using it as a database mostly for the projects I am on. My focus currently is to integrate in house applications with NetSuite ERP so that we have a consistent data source without users have to go too deep into NetSuite ERP when not necessary. We also use it for WMS, SOs, POs, etc.
  • One data source
  • Role access
  • I believe getting data out of it can be insane until you have a deep understanding. (It's still insane once you understand but palatable)
  • I believe the learning resources are lacking
  • Every tool has a niche and use case, but it usually isn't yours
  • It has a negative ROI at this point because we are young enough with our implementation to just be spending money.
In my opinion, NetSuite ERP has worse courses to teach users. As far as one vs the other, I would investigate both, consider support and ease of learning, as well as where to get consultants.

Yes

Did implementation of NetSuite ERP go as expected?

No

Would you buy NetSuite ERP again?

Yes

I believe the UI is not intuitive and finding things can be very difficult. In my opinion, integration with NetSuite ERP can be a trudge until you know it well. It is very easy to over customize your implementation and make it very difficult to maintain.
Support has always done the best they could for our situation. They generally do a good job of at least pointing in the right direction and usually are able to do it in a timely manner.
I gave it a seven because it can be very helpful. Everything in your business can be in one place, which gives you one solid place for data. That data purity can be a huge advantage because everyone sees the same info. It can be easily updated and immediately visible across the platform. Some negatives are the niche use cases of some tools that make them useless for most users, in my opinion. In my opinion, support is not great, especially as you get a more complex implementation as there is just too much going on for people on the outside to quickly help.
