Pros

The best part of the software is that you You can download data for any period that you desire. It provides with a very user-friendly dashboard and the ease of accounting is also there.
It's ability to allow the user to customise the report by adding data field(s) which is great as we do not always need to go behind IT Professional asking for help.
The ability to customize just about anything your organization wants is rewarding. And if you are willing to spend, you can have your system fit your business processes like a glove.

Pros

I also like that I can attach receipts to my expenses. I'm very thankful for Zoho Books and hope they continue to meet the needs of sole proprietors like me.
To conclude, Zoho Books is easy to understand and its configuration is quick and easy. The automation of the system is great and you save a lot of time.
That said, the Zoho family of products are solid, so if you have need for an accounting product and you are familiar with accounting software, this product would be a great choice.

Cons

My advice for those scoping out Netsuite is seriously analyze your business requirements and then advocate the hell for them in the scoping or implementation phases.
Please do your research before you find yourself stuck in a contract with a bunch of misleading employees that won't even respond to your email or try to address your concerns.
I hate the reporting functionality, avoid it if I can. Might be that I don't really understand its uses.

Cons

The payment plans are a little frustrating. The limits are on the number of contacts and as a business with lots of contacts and only one transaction often per contact it gets really expensive.
Bad automatic matching, paypal multi-currency feed all over the place.
The another problem of this software is that this software is very difficult for the new users and it is not so easy to learn how to handle our accounts and invoices.

Netsuite is a pretty simple and efficient product that I use for journal entries and running reports

Reviewed 6 years ago

We get to post journal entries with relative ease and build our books in it.

Pros

I like how easy it is to upload import files for posting entries. Also, downloading and customizing GL reports is pretty simply too, where the ability to adjust parameters are pretty flexible. The platform is over all easy to navigate.

Cons

I wish it were possible to post multiple entries at once via import file. It takes a while to post so many entries when you have to do one import file per entry.

Pricey Solution

Reviewed 7 years ago
Pros

NetSuite can be customized, is cloud-based, and gets the job done. Was a step up for us from Quick Books.

Cons

For our needs, it is overkill. The interface isn't the most intuitive and looks outdated. I wish we had stayed with Quick Books.

Best CRM software

Reviewed 8 years ago

Since everyone in your organization is connected to the customer relationship management software, you can track each employee's workflow, task-completion ratio and progress reports. The group calendar is a great place for everyone to keep track of their to-do lists and show off their accomplishments when they are completed. There are plenty of helps and walk-throughs that each user can access for help in using the CRM software. You can create links to articles or upload documents that have an outline of company policies and procedures.

Pros

The ability to add data points to the customer and also to build a customer using project modules all while keeping the books accurately reflecting that financial relationship.

Cons

It doesn't have live chat support, nor does it have a social CRM application. Higher turnaround times for complaint resolution

Definitely the best ERP and CRM tool

Reviewed 8 years ago

NetSuite is used across the organization and is the financial system of records for us. It is an excellent cloud based solution and is well integrated across modules. It is user friendly, easy to implement and also easy to understand and train users on.

Pros

1. The ability to add data points to the customer and also to build a customer using project modules all while keeping the books accurately reflecting that financial relationship. 2. Customize using suitescript.

Cons

Multi dimensional searches are not easy so other user friendly softwares can be used for that. Bill/Print Invoice button should be added

Netsuite. The heavy hitter for the little guy

Reviewed 13 years ago

Netsuite gave our company the same features and functionality as our largest competitors at a fraction of the cost and no large investment in servers or managing an IT Dept. Information is power, and the piece of mind knowing that all of our company's vital information in stored on mirrored off-site servers is priceless. The expandability of Netsuite allows me to propose aggressive growth ideas knowing I have the right software backing me up.

Pros

Cloud based. No servers on site. Seamless integration across the business. Inventory hits the books in real time. User roles are customizable. Online help desk is well explained to provide answers. Simple and powerful CRM.

Cons

More of a suggestion: When you go Netsuite, it's a great idea to get 2 or more internet providers. If your main line goes down due to construction, the 2nd ISP can keep you from sending staff home for the day.

Robust system that's also fairly intuitive

Reviewed 4 years ago

Netsuite is a robust product that make searching and reporting easy. There is a way to report on anything in anyway you need.

Pros

Netsuite is fairly intuitive for being such a complex system. I also really love the Sandbox capability. I love being able to mess around and try things without actually affecting the books. It also integrates with just about every finance product I've ever been interested in.

Cons

I am sometimes disappointed with the "out of the box" product, meaning there are some things that I would think are standard, but they end up costing more. I also wish their support system was easier. You are forced to use SuiteAnswers to look for answers yourself, which can be helpful, but it seems like you have to jump through some hoops before being able to talk to a support representative. My account CSM often refers me to support for questions that I feel like he should know.

Loads of potential

Reviewed 5 years ago

Set up team is great, and very accommodating. Overall product is great and we are looking forward to a lasting relationship.

Pros

We needed a program that was ready to use out of the box with the option to develop it from there. Netsuite passed with flying colors. Accomplishes everything Quick-books does and then loads more. Loads of integrations possible. And with some basic programming knowledge you can really take it to the next level.

Cons

Price is quite high. After the set up quality service is quite expensive. Also due to the corporate structure there is lot of getting passed around to get issues resolved.

Since 2009 nothing but issues

Reviewed 8 years ago

Our implementation was incomplete leaving us having to pay new developers to fi serrarra constuling was arrogant and sloppy. And with netsuite lack of customer service we spent years in private contracts with their development partner Aminion was and still is fantastic....but not cheap: here's a real stat for ya...switching from Netsuite ecommerce to shopify we was gains of 25-30 monthly. Netsuites templates are old and ugly and if you want something done right just do it yourself because they will over charge you and deliver an ugly product mo the past delivery. I'm celebrating my last few contractual weeks on this platform the gave up on small business. Bright pearl. Zoho. Full cycle light....the list goes on and on for better solutions at half the cost.

Extremely robust and customizable, yet archaic, poor interface, and too expensive.

Pros

The ability to customize just about anything your organization wants is rewarding. And if you are willing to spend, you can have your system fit your business processes like a glove. Integration apps, along with native functionality of workflows can put your business in a “semi-autopilot mode.” Practically limitless reporting capabilities. You can manage almost every aspect of the your organization while enforcing internal controls and monitoring employees with full visibility. I would recommend for enterprises with no less than 8M in sales and with at least 8 or more users to leverage the full functionality of this role-based system. Netsuite is built to fit the needs of each role within your organization, from the sales rep and warehouse manager to the A/R clerk and controller.

Cons

Nasty corporate culture. No accountability for system issues, error, or outages. Sneaky contracts that will hook you with discounts and raise fees exorbitantly after your are stuck with your data and huge conversion costs. Nightmarish implementation that Netsuite outsources to foreign “professional” services that know pretty much the same as you would do from the get go. They barely speak English—incorrect...

NetSuite

Too Complicated for Daily Use

Reviewed 9 years ago

Netsuite was chosen by our company around 9 months ago and has been in use since January 2015. Implementation was long process and was expensive. Costs include the purchase of main licence, an expensive per-person licence, paying a consulting firm to run the implementation project and having a dedicated in-house employee as "admin" to support the other users. Netsuite has brought some great changes...

Pros

Solid back end Keeps excellent and accurate records that are easily audited Brings transparency to processes

Cons

Too difficult to use and therefore staff refrain from using it for all but the most essential tasks Requires an in-house expert to help run the system Requires months of repeated training to get staff up to speed Poor for tracking customer account history Extremely difficult to extract and graph the data that you need from it Rigid and hard to change display and parameters of any data displays Very expensive
