Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you're exploring NetSuite for the first time or looking to improve an existing setup, our team is happy to walk you through your options

What industries do you specialize in?

We specialize in Wholesale Distribution, E-commerce, Retail and Manufacturing, helping businesses streamline their operations across inventory management, order fulfillment, procurement, and accounting. Our team understands the complexities of managing multiple warehouses, pricing tiers, B2B customer relationships, and integrated shipping, and we tailor NetSuite to support your exact workflows.

How do I know if NetSuite is the right fit for my business?

NetSuite is ideal for growing businesses that need an integrated platform for accounting, inventory, CRM, and more. We offer a discovery session to evaluate your current systems and determine if NetSuite aligns with your business goals.

How long does a typical NetSuite implementation take?

Implementation timelines vary based on complexity and scope. A basic setup can take 1–2 weeks, while a more customized solution may take 3–6 months. We provide a detailed project plan during the design phase.

We're currently using QuickBooks (or Sage/another platform) but feel like we've outgrown it. What makes NetSuite a better option, and how can a transition benefit our business?

As businesses grow, platforms like QuickBooks and Sage can start to show their limitations, especially around scalability, real-time reporting, and integration with other systems. NetSuite is designed for growing and mid-market companies that need a more robust ERP solution. It offers end-to-end visibility across finance, inventory, CRM, and more, all in one platform. By transitioning to NetSuite, you can eliminate data silos, reduce manual processes, and gain the insights needed to make faster, more informed decisions. With the right implementation partner, the migration can be smooth, with minimal disruption and long-term benefits in automation, efficiency, and control.

What sets a great consultant apart?

A great consultant listens carefully, understands the client’s goals, and tailors solutions to fit the unique challenges of the business. They bring not only technical knowledge and industry experience, but also strong communication skills, critical thinking, and a proactive mindset. Great consultants help implement change, provide clarity in complex situations, and stay committed to delivering measurable value. What sets them apart is their ability to build strong relationships, remain flexible, and guide clients with confidence and empathy every step of the way.
