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 highly configurable, cloud‑based platform that centralizes financials, operational data, and reporting in one system.”
JP

Jacob P.

Senior Associate

“This significantly streamlines daily operations and makes accessing real-time data simple and efficient, helping teams stay aligned and make informed decisions.”
JL

Joseph L.

IT Administrator

Pros

“Includes accounting, quoting, quality, production, sales, customer service and some high-level executive overview items.”
DS

David S.

VP of Technology

“I'm sure the new Cloud version has updated the layout to a more modern aesthetic, however after reviewing the drawback of that version we have decided to stay on our On-Prem version 7.51 until another ERP solution is identified.”
DS

David S.

VP of Technology

“Overall this is a very useful and powerful ERP that we could not run the business without, although it could be simplified and have more visually appealing aspects”

Planner Buyer

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

“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

“The NetSuite fully takes the painful, repetitive work out of flipping back and forth between poorly-constructed spreadsheets and clunky governmental reporting applications.”

Cons

“Having worked now almost entirely on a laptop since 2020, the framing of the windows is atrocious.”
