Customers Quotes
Customer Quotes: Manufacturing
“Having BOMs in NetSuite helps us figure out which parts
and items we’ll need for sales opportunities and manage
where these builds need to go. Because we can plan
ahead, we can easily figure out when we want to commit
Payment Orders for the different parts of process that we
need to purchase: critical parts that would take 6 weeks to
produce. From setting up inventory parts to assemblies
down to SKUs, NetSuite Light Manufacturing allows us to
efficiently manage our production” - Marc Masnik, CIO
“By replacing our old system with NetSuite, we’ve gained
efficiencies equivalent to six full time employees. NetSuite
provides insight and control over our entire workflow, from
parts procurement through assembly, shipping, delivery
and customer follow-up.” Sonny Jelinek, CEO
"NetSuite's platform has helped our business improve
customer service, eliminate paper and waste, and utilize
advanced inventory management techniques to bring new
products to market quickly. We are not only saving money,
but using our NetSuite system to help grow our sales.“
- Jason Howard, CEO
Customer Quotes: Wholesale and Distributio
“Choosing NetSuite has allowed us the needed business
flexibility for our key backend processes around financials,
inventory and CRM. This coupled with their platform allows
us to integrate our e-commerce front end seamlessly.“
- Yugo Kanazawa, President
“The NetSuite system was up and running for our new
logistics division within an incredibly short amount of time,
and it helped us close a significant amount of business when
we needed it most – in December, our busiest month of the
year,” - Geoffrey Smalling, CTO, Wine.com
“With NetSuite we can adjust supply-chain or inventorymanagement priorities based on changes in customer
orders, and we can give our customers real-time visibility into
the status of their orders – all of these benefits reflect directly
back to our differentiation, and to our bottom line success.”
- Jad Daye, President, Alpha Comm Enterprises
Customer Quotes: vs Epicor
“The only regret with our cancelling of the Epicor system
and our NetSuite selection and implementation is that we
didn’t do it sooner.” Pete Teigen, CFO
“Leveraging Epicor ERP, it was hard to create the custom
forms, workflows, dashboards and reports that were crucial
to running our business. With NetSuite we were able to
build all of our necessary workflow and build a customized
order management process across the web through sales
fulfillment accounting, all inside NetSuite.”
“With Epicor, remote access and upgrades were always big
challenges; NetSuite’s cloud solution changed all that.”
- Rob Forand, Dir of Administration
Customer Quotes: Implementation
“We found NetSuite’s implementation team to be much
easier to work with and they took an active interest in
helping NextLife get up and running.” Pete Teigen, CFO
“We signed our contract with NetSuite the 1st week of
March and we went live July 1st. It was a very quick
implementation made possible by the easy data integration
tools. We were also impressed with how easy the online
user training was. The training was more effective with our
employees because it was done with a web browser which
everyone is familiar with.” David Brault, CFO
