With transactions in 13 currencies, a variety of purchasing and expenditure controls and complex billing rules, Marin found that its previous system was unable to support the demands of a business with an unlimited ceiling. "We went as far as we could with QuickBooks, and knew we needed a world-class ERP solution to manage our business and equity needs," said John Kaelle, CFO at Marin Software. "The digital advertising world moves fast, and we know that NetSuite OneWorld can adapt to our changing business requirements."

The widespread demand for its solutions meant that Talend needed a comprehensive platform to support operations in 12 countries and transactions in 20 currencies. NetSuite OneWorld delivered, managing budgets, quotes, sales, territories, expenses and sophisticated revenue recognition across the entire organization. Over 200 Talend employees use NetSuite, and the company has been repeatedly recognized as a fast-track prospect for global success.
