NetSuite Implementation Done Right

Trusted Oracle NetSuite Implementation Partner

As a NetSuite BPO Partner we specialize in selling, implementing, and optimizing the world’s leading cloud-based ERP solution. We provide both implementation and ongoing operational support, as much or as little as you need. This makes us heavily invested in the success of your implementation for the long term, and also allows you to more efficiently run your business and scale more quickly.

How long does it take to implement NetSuite?

How long it takes depends on scope, so we run it on three tracks. A fresh business on core financials goes live in about 30 days on our Founder Fast-Track. An established SMB with standard modules and one clean data load runs about 60 days on Growth Go-Live. Anything that needs custom development, complex integrations, or multi-entity work is a scoped Custom Build at 90 days or more. See how the tracks and Zero-Cost Go-Live work.

These factors include the specific requirements of your business, the integration of existing software, the availability of your internal employees, and the extent of customization needed. Each of these elements can influence the overall timeline and scope of the implementation process.

How much does a NetSuite implementation cost?

Three categories of cost are usually involved: NetSuite licensing, implementation, and integrations. A scoped implementation normally runs $15,000 to $55,000 for small to midsize businesses. Here is the part worth reading twice: on our two standard tracks, that build is included. You license NetSuite through us and let us run your accounting or admin, and the go-live comes with it, no separate invoice. Only a Custom Build, meaning custom development, complex integrations, or multi-entity work, is scoped and quoted separately. See how Zero-Cost Go-Live works.
