12 NetSuite Managed Services That Will Keep Your ERP Running At Its Best
A well-maintained system is a successful system.
Here's how to manage your ERP's upkeep.
If you’ve experienced a NetSuite Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation before, you know it doesn’t end with deployment; if you’re like many businesses, it doesn’t end at all. Once you've gone online, you must still sort out bugs, train staff to use the new software, expand and reconfigure the system as you grow, and more. Therefore, it helps to have ERP advisors on retainer.
Enter NetSuite Managed Services.
Our Managed Service plans include a variety of continuous support tasks that maintain and expand your ERP system so it runs without glitchy disruptions. This offering is an alternative to the Break-Fix model, focusing on preventative maintenance instead of reactive patching.
At SuiteDynamics, we include many support tasks in our NetSuite Managed Service plans, but clients request 12 most often. Read their descriptions, then schedule a free consultation with our team. We understand what’s at stake for your company and can develop a plan to maximize your NetSuite investment long after go-live.
Our team builds basic and advanced financial reports and saved searches. We can do everything from configuring field filters and result sorting to writing function summaries and SQL formulas. You can request almost any kind of search or report, including:
- Advanced inventory tracking for manufacturing
- Rate calculation on late vendor deliveries
- Rates on late delivery for internal work orders
- Inventory control
- EBITDA
- Enhanced segmented financial views
- Comparative searches and reports
NetSuite is an enormous system with many small parts. In fact, its size and scope can get overwhelming, especially when you think about learning the steps for each function and teaching them to your team. But you shouldn’t stress.
Our team can create educational material for NetSuite Managed Services clients that demonstrates how to perform system tasks. These documents include step-by-step instructions and screenshots so your team can easily operate any software feature or customization.
We also provide other written materials that describe your system and how it's configured. Our API references and developer documentation offer comprehensive information about the software's functionalities, architecture, usage, and maintenance.
We give you all the information you need to create a report, track inventory, and perform any other necessary tasks.
ERP Health Checks
Like people, software systems need occasional check-ups to ensure they operate at their best. Our NetSuite Managed Services team can examine your ERP to see how it’s functioning.
First, our ERP advisors will analyze the system’s speed, considering any active automation that may affect processing times. Next, we’ll examine your system's operation, noting issues and identifying their root causes.
You’ll receive a thorough report detailing any system problems we find and offering recommendations for fixing them.

General Support Across All NetSuite Modules
As you know, every software system experiences glitches and bugs occasionally. Our ERP advisors will review and troubleshoot any issues with your system. Additionally, we’ll maintain and improve your software by recommending new modules that will benefit your specific business processes.
Solution Design & Architecture
Every company is unique, so it’s common for a business to develop processes that no other company has. If that company uses NetSuite, the software must accommodate all its procedures.
SuiteDynamics specializes in designing and customizing NetSuite to fit non-standard business operations. We have built various customizations for processes ranging from accounting to auctions. Thus, we can create a NetSuite solution that suits your company, no matter how it operates.
Integration Development & Support
A NetSuite Cloud ERP can handle just about any business function, but that doesn’t mean you must give up the third-party programs you’ve used for years. Our NetSuite Managed Services team can customize the software to coordinate with any third-party program or e-commerce website so data can flow freely between your ERP and other systems.
NetSuite User Training
An ERP is worthless if you don’t know how to use it. Our ERP advisors offer one-on-one and team training to help your staff learn basic and advanced NetSuite functions. With our help, your employees will know the system and its customizations inside and out.
NetSuite CRM Automation
We can set up, configure, enhance, and maintain your NetSuite Customer Relationship Management module. This system handles the entire journey from lead to prospect to signed customer. You can also automate email and mail campaigns, create quotes and estimates, and manage all customer support cases through the software. Essentially, you can use it to generate a continuous stream of sales prospects.
