NetSuite developers target vertical markets

March 20, 2009:SaaS front-runner NetSuite has announced two vertical market apps developed in Australia on its cloud platform, known as the NetSuite Business Operating System (NS-BOS).

NetSuite’s Vice President of International Sales, Johnny Jones, said the two Australian partners have already developed applications in NS-BOS and are providing them to local and international customers, including NetSuite users.

“We are delighted that Online One and ePayroll have already leveraged the advanced capabilities of NS-BOS to provide niche solutions that build on the NetSuite family of business applications,” said Johnny Jones.

Online One has developed two solutions via NS-BOS. One is an Asset Management system that is already being sold around the world. The second is an Electronic Payment System specific to the needs of Australian and New Zealand users.

Online One’s Sales and Marketing Director, Don McLean, said NetSuite’s approach is unique in the way that it provides open access to the application code, enabling Online One’s products to operate completely within the Software as a Service (SaaS) solution.

“With NS-BOS, we can take our code and create a suite bundle so that customers have integrated access to our functionality as well as the NetSuite applications,” he said.

ePayroll has integrated its SaaS Payroll system with the NetSuite Accounting package to streamline payroll processes for Australian businesses.

ePayroll Business Analyst, Tony Senese, said the integration enables users to automatically post their payroll data to NetSuite.

“The benefit for customers is ease of use. Our tight integration with NetSuite means there are no manual files to load and no chance of data getting misplaced or mistranslated. We recognise that the payroll function is often handled by a start-up business owner or administrator who has only limited payroll knowledge, so theePayroll solution empowers the user with built-in rules that simplify the process and ensure compliance.”
