Pros

“NetSuite is an accurate ERP system as long as the master data is clean and well-maintained, since the quality and reliability of its outputs heavily depend on having consistent, accurate, and properly managed data inputs across the organization.”
GL

Giann L.

ERP Supervisor

“NetSuite provides a comprehensive cloud-based ERP platform that brings financials, accounting, inventory, order management, and reporting into one system.”

Anish C.

SDE

“Custom reporting is a lifesaver; I built dashboards that pull live sales data and sync with Slack alerts, cutting our weekly review time by half.”
GR

Grace R.

Finance Manager

Pros

“Dashboards, reporting, and visual tools help monitor operations, improve efficiency, and provide accurate job profitability insights.”
JT

Junior T.

Data Processor

“We receive and pay our bills on time every month but no calls and emails get a response from ECI.”
DV

Dries V.

Chief Operating Officer

“In the inputs for materials in the quoting feature, it sometimes is difficult to change the inputs to exactly what I want.”
RS

Reg S.

President

Cons

“One of the least favorable aspects of NetSuite is its complexity, as the system can be difficult to learn and navigate, especially for new users, often requiring significant time, training, and support to fully utilize its features.”
GL

Giann L.

ERP Supervisor

“The UI feels cluttered when I try to drill down into inventory levels, and the learning curve for the advanced financial modules is steeper than expected, so I had to spend extra hours training.”
GR

Grace R.

Finance Manager

“During peak usage periods, the lag becomes even more noticeable, making it difficult for teams to work efficiently under time pressure — especially during month-end close or busy operational periods. While NetSuite is a powerful cloud-based platform, the performance doesn’t always reflect that power in day-to-day use.”
DC

Dirk C.

ERP administrator

Cons

“We need to adjust our current ERP modules and suites to keep up with our growth and ECI is not giving us the attention we need.”
DV

Dries V.

Chief Operating Officer

“The customer service and the fact that we can not have an end-to-end solution discussion with anyone at ECI”
DV

Dries V.

Chief Operating Officer

“Customizing is difficult to the average user, and for anything to be customized by M1, it always costs extra.”
