NetSuite's Solution |
On Premise Solution |
| Server Hardware |
Not required. All you need is a laptop/desktop per user. All of the server side computing done by NetSuite |
Required. Must buy or lease the server and support the operating system, including upgrades, and handle all maintenance and troubleshooting |
| Database and Application Server Software |
Not required. NetSuite is built on the rock solid Oracle Db and App Server, but you simply net the benefits without the time and money required for purchase and maintenance |
You need to purchase licenses for a Database and perform regular upgrades and maintenance. Need to keep Operation System, Database and Applications in technical sync - late night research. |
| Business Continuity |
NetSuite provides several levels of network and data redundancy. Every transaction is mirrored on a fail over system, with backups every night and every week. You operate your business regardless of what might happen to it |
Disaster Recovery is your responsibility. Take backups every day and practice the restore. When operating system, database or application versions change, are you sure you can restore to a new machine from tape? |
| Personnel |
Your greatest challenge is your business, not the IT system. NetSuite lets you focus all of your effort and personnel on business solutions. |
Major distraction. Several people involved with maintaining system. IT department normally evolves, an ever growing cost center |
| Integration |
NetSuite enables a complete 360 degree view of your business, from customer to partners, web presence, accounting, inventory, purchasing, customer service and marketing activity. A single integrated system, completely internet capable |
The On premise solution legacy is silo applications. One for CRM, another for accounting and inventory and none of them tied to the internet where you are now actively pursuing leads and selling, or servicing customers. Result: Disparate systems and broken business processes. |
But you don't have to believe us. Investigate the study, done by the Yankee Group, and written about here. Business applications delivered as a service are not what's next. They are what's NOW.
