NetSuite Ideal Fit for SaaS Companies

While the software-as-a-service (SaaS) model is far outpacing the older on-premise model, the tools available today to help SaaS companies manage key revenue and contract management processes are woefully inadequate. Today, many companies still rely on highly inefficient, spreadsheet-driven manual processes. NetSuite Software Company Edition eliminates the need for spreadsheets by providing a completely integrated and automated system that combines subscription renewals, billing and complex contract management with the company's award-winning financial management suite.

"Winning software companies today are choosing NetSuite to run their businesses," said Jim McGeever, NetSuite COO. "There's no other product on the market that combines the productivity and cost-savings benefits of cloud computing with the deep functional capabilities software companies need to run efficiently and scale."

The new capabilities in NetSuite Software Company Edition are available as an add-on module to NetSuite's core ERP suite.  Key features include:

• Renewal Automation – Reduces the manual effort typically associated with the renewals process and enables customers to automatically generate renewal transactions based on a pre-defined window, such as 90 days before expiration.
• Uplift and Discount Management – Enables increased pricing granularity, flexibility and discounting both during the creation of a contract and the upsell process.
• Reporting and Visibility – Real-time dashboards provide critical key performance indicators (KPIs) such as recurring revenue, renewal pipeline and upsell as well as analysis of customer and contract types.
• Revenue Recognition – Provides flexibility to separate revenue recognition from billing milestones, a critical requirement for some companies to meet new revenue recognition guidelines.

The product is immediately available. For more information, please visit www.netsuite.com/renewal-management.
