United States : NCI sharpens its edge in lead-generation publishing with Netsuite [TendersInfo (India)](TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) NetSuite Inc., the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that Network Communications Inc. (NCI) (www.nci.com), the largest U.S. publisher of local printed and online magazines for the multi-family rental, real estate, home design and home improvement markets, has gone live on NetSuite to transform its business operations and drive business growth with a fully integrated cloud business management suite. NCI deployed NetSuite to replace an Infor on-premise ERP solution and a cloud-based CRM application that were limited in flexibility, functionality and scalability. This modernization effort also eliminated NCI's paper-based manual processes and replaced numerous Excel spreadsheets. With NetSuite, NCI is able to run mission-critical business processes from financials, recurring billing, order management, purchasing, and revenue recognition to employee center and customer relationship management (CRM). As a result, NCI has gained unprecedented business visibility, efficiency and control. "We had to make a choice of spending a million dollars to upgrade the Lawson system or go with a system that was cloud-based and easy for everyone in the field to access, which Lawson couldn't provide," said Diana Young, NCI Senior Vice President. "One reason we chose NetSuite was that it provides ERP and other applications like CRM so that we have a one-stop shop." Frustrated with the inflexible, stone-age Infor Lawson system that was built before the Internet, NCI was eager to modernize the old technology platform with a flexible and agile software solution. After evaluating 13 competing solutions that included SAP, Microsoft Dynamics GP, Oracle and Sage, NCI selected NetSuite. (c) 2014 Euclid Infotech Pvt. Ltd. Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.
