Pros
"The most valuable aspect of NetSuite ERP is the multi-subsidiary portion, it is the strongest across all the other ERPs. If you want to do consolidations, it works a lot better than other tools.""The user interface is very good.""NetSuite ERP has dramatically improved our organization. We went from QuickBooks to NetSuite. You can compare this transition to changing from tennis shoes to a flying car.""NetSuite is significantly more affordable than Oracle EBS and offers a wider range of features than other OEMs.""NetSuite ERP is a user-friendly cloud-based solution that posts into the GL in real time. You can see your profitability at the order level.""The most valuable feature is that it works according to how the Internet works.""NetSuite is a better value than some competing solutions. The fee structure is simpler, and other ERP solutions don't offer as many options for configuration.""I would say that the solution is highly configurable."

"The top-level view and easy navigation to individual transaction levels are beautifully done in SAP Business One.""The modules, like the accounting and procurement modules, especially the finance and accounting modules, are quite impressive in the solution.""The product makes it easier to overview the ERP system and manufacturing processes through different modules.""Setting up Business One is straightforward.

Cons
"NetSuite ERP's UI could be improved. There are some features that are very complex that do not have to be. There are some aspects of the solution that could be simplified and this can include the documentation. Since it's a very complex tool, you expect to have great detailed documentation to help you implement it.""Many features such as local taxation and fund management are not there yet.""The manufacturing and planning side could be improved. That part isn't up to date. NetSuite could be easier to integrate in general.""If you do go through an implementor, you need to be careful that they are actual implementors and not just resellers.""Additionally, adding advanced modules such as AI components or customer service modules could help the system become more scalable.""The pricing is high.""It would be great if they offered localization for Central America.""The solution could be more stable."

"I would like to achieve better integration with AWS so that it becomes more interconnected with the SAP system.""The browser access needs to improve, as everybody in the industry knows how limited it is.""There are limitations of SAP Business One. It's a complex topic, and exploring options like SAP HANA is challenging at the moment. Understanding the limitations of ERP requires thorough research. I suggest conducting some preliminary investigations into ERP products before making a decision. We chose SAP Business One as it caters to SMEs like ours, acknowledging and accepting its limitations. While a larger product exists, switching would entail budget considerations due to the ongoing implementations. Therefore, the current situation with SAP Business One is not a matter of concern.""The web client is an area with shortcomings, which SAP is presently working on, and needs to improve.""The tool's cost is an area of concern where improvements are required.""There is a need to make multiple changes in the code to make a few changes in any module of the product.""I would like SAP to replace Business One's fixed Web client with a native Web solution. Right now, their remote access is based on RVP. We have to access the solution through a Windows-based client. It's not a native Web interface.""The solution has a feature that shows you the purchase order that you put on a project and requires you to approve it to be applied to the project, but it doesn't let you move the purchase order to another project. That would be a great feature to have, because if you don't approve it, you have to delete everything and make it again."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I would advise that you first meet with and scope out your project with a NetSuite VAR (Value Added Reseller)."
  • "When people buy ERP, it's a competitive situation and the pricing is paramount."
  • "It is completely on a subscription basis. We pay yearly and, and you do not have to do anything on a monthly basis. Prices depend on the organization's scale and all those things, but they are doing a good job with the pricing."
  • "There is an annual license required to use this solution."
  • "The price of the solution is quite high."
  • "NetSuite ERP has a cost per module you want to use, and then you have the license per user."
  • "Pricing for NetSuite ERP is okay, but it could be better. The licensing model for NetSuite ERP is based on the number of modules and users. The standard license covers up to twenty-five users. If you have more than twenty-five users, you'll have to buy the premium license, which would double the price. For one module with five user licenses, the cost is between $40,000 to $50,000."
  • "It's very competitively priced due to it being a subscription model. So, clients are quite happy with the pricing. I would rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing."
  • More NetSuite ERP Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The price of the limited version is about 70,000 Pesos ($2,900 USD), and the professional version is about double at 140,000 Pesos ($5,800 USD)."
  • "Licenses are available on a monthly or yearly basis, and it costs about $1,200 per license, per user."
  • "The price of SAP Business One on AWS could be lower, it is expensive."
  • "The price of SAP Business One on AWS is reasonable for what we use it for."
  • "We have an annual cost for licensing and storage in AWS."
  • "Pricing for me, it's not very interesting. I think it's priced at a normal level."
  • "There is an annual licensing fee, and it changes once you add or remove users. The solution is on the upper-end side and expensive."
