NetSuite ERP Scalability
GH
Gene Hammons
Director at ProfitFromERP
There are situations where a company will move out of NetSuite into tier-one when they're a $2 billion company or something. The fact that you can afford tier-one products at $2 billion is a completely different situation than trying to afford that when you're a $400 million symphony. The product scales well into hundreds of users. There are situations where you're going to find you need this tier-one customization, etc. Still, that's not for years and by that time, you'll be able to afford that.

This whole platform is designed in such a way that they do have a user-based billing model, however, system by system is robust. If somebody, some company, is using that at their initial stage and they're growing, so it will not provide any technical issues as such, in terms of systems slowness or things like that. However, if a company's business is getting complex, if there are a lot of new workflows being added, then NetSuite might not be the right choice for them. Scalability-wise, we can scale. In terms of the volume of users, there is no system impact in NetSuite.
We have our clients which are using it. From our company side, as a part of our team, there are four to five people who are using it. I'd rate the solution four out of five in terms of scalability.
View full review »The solution is highly scalable and capable of supporting up to 2,500 users without any user restrictions. Database storage and access are reliable, and data centers are well-equipped and globally distributed. Consequently, the system is reliable and can be relied upon to support a high user base.

I would rate this solution's scalability a nine, on a scale from one to 10, with one being the worst and 10 being the best. Currently, there are around 40 or 50 users of this solution in our organization.

The scalability of NetSuite ERP is quite good when incorporating APIs and plugins. In that regard, I would rate it highly. However, when it comes to high volumes of transactions, I am not sure if it is still scalable.
I would rate the scalability of NetSuite a seven out of ten. There are around 20-30 users in our organization.

Scalability is pretty good. It's targeted. Oracle has its Oracle cloud product and some other junk products in between, but the two flagship products are Oracle Cloud (for tier one companies, over a billion dollars in revenue)m and then NetSuite, which is targeted for the half a billion-dollar or maybe up to billion-dollar revenue. We have four companies with over a billion dollars in revenue on NetSuite.
Up to that point, it's really very scalable. Even after that point, it's really not a matter of the system not being scalable. It's more the server and the data centers that they've sort of configured for that. You've got 25,000 companies, and 90 plus percent of them are probably in the hundred to $500 million range of revenue. Revenue is not always a good indicator, because some companies, like the company I'm in right now, is a half a billion-dollar revenue company. However, they function more like a hundred million dollar company because the invoicing they do is very large and very complex invoicing, but large-dollar transactions.
So they'll do a $25-$50,000 invoice as well. That rolls up to half a billion pretty fast. That said, the volumes aren't really there. They don't have any more volume than a retail business, or a distribution business might have with a tenth their size. You can't use revenues and bills as a total indicator every time.
I would say NetSuite would struggle to scale beyond a billion dollars if it were a retail business. That's just in terms of how it's built. It's built for the mid-market, and some limitations are there that you wouldn't hit then until you get to a billion. It's still a great system and there is a provision for buying up to more tiered levels of processing capacity. That way, very large companies can run on NetSuite.

Scalability is one of the areas of limitation, as it's not designed for the larger, more complex businesses or businesses that grow out of being a small regional player into a super-regional type of organization.
With the improvements in the cloud product it's possible to move to another Oracle product such as the Fusion more easily. In that respect, once you get a certain level or need certain functionality, the ability to move from a NetSuite to Oracle Fusion now is much easier to do from the cloud.
Our clients are mixed organizations. Most are in the mid to large size company. I'm talking in the hundred millions into billions. I've had quite a few clients that are four billion-plus.

I believe scalability is a non-issue for 99% of companies. It may be an issue for companies processing excessive volumes of data but I don't have enough experience to comment further.

Scalability is never a major issue with NetSuite, if all the factors are considered during the implementation phase.

NetSuite ERP is highly scalable for companies that have six, seven, eight, different subsidiaries across different countries. NetSuite is well suited for that use case.

It is scalable. Right now, we have 15 users, but I think we are going to increase it because we were limiting it. Since we have automated the manufacturing inside NetSuite, we will probably be going up to 30 or 35 users.
