Moving more aggressively to target larger enterprise customers, NetSuite Inc. today unveiled a packaged integration between its software-as-a-service (SaaS) ERP suite and SAP AG’s enterprise applications.
The product, NetSuite OneWorld for SAP, is aimed at SAP enterprise customers that want to automate and integrate remote plants and offices but do not want to incur the cost of implementing an expensive, on-premise ERP system in such far-flung divisions.
“We’re targeting companies with multiple subsidiaries and international locations, where getting full SAP applications up and running would take a long time and where doing so would be overkill for what they need,” said Mini Peiris, vice president for product marketing at NetSuite in an interview with Managing Automation.
“We see a need for more on-demand ERP solutions in the enterprise,” Peiris added. “We are seeing more and more CIOs who represent large companies who see us as a viable part of their plans.”
