NetSuite, the provider of cloud-based financials / ERP software suites, and NEC have announced a strategic global partnership to expand the reach of cloud ERP solutions to worldwide enterprises. The partnership pairs NetSuite’s technology for ERP, CRM, Ecommerce and professional services automation (PSA) with NEC’s unparalleled expertise in delivering customised, integrated solutions and best practices to large enterprises. The two companies together can provide sales, customisation, integration and support to the worldwide market.
An important aspect of the NetSuite-NEC partnership is the Enterprise Gateway for NetSuite, new integration software from NEC designed to speed adoption of NetSuite’s cloud capabilities by global corporations. The new software seamlessly integrates NetSuite’s cloud platform with existing systems such as SAP and Oracle, and enables organisations to leverage data from established systems in real-time, enhancing business processes with the benefits of fast, flexible and scalable cloud capabilities.
“The NetSuite / NEC partnership brings together two industry leaders to focus on a major new business opportunity – bringing best-in-class cloud ERP solutions to the enterprise,” said Zach Nelson, NetSuite CEO. “Our combined efforts around two-tier ERP can enable organisations to standardise on the latest cloud computing technology, while retaining the power and value of their existing systems, and at a fraction of the implementation cost and time of a complete IT overhaul.”
“Combining the core strengths of NEC and NetSuite establishes a solid foundation of technology, services and solutions expertise that can really deliver the strong benefits of two-tier ERP for large organisations,” said Nobuyuki Nihira, General Manager of IT Software Support Division, NEC Corporation. “The Enterprise Gateway for NetSuite provides a smoother and easier integration with the two-tier ERP model, enabling companies to meet their global strategies more efficiently. NEC is firmly behind the cloud service strategic solution for enterprises, enhancing the partnership with NetSuite in Japan and globally, including North America and Asia.”
