Whether you’re embarking on a NetSuite implementation or seeking to elevate your existing environment, SquareWorks is here to help as your reliable and trusted NetSuite partner.

We’re thrilled to introduce Laura Van Lenten, SquareWorks Business Development Executive and former NetSuite Solution Consultant with more than 10 years of business, audit and NetSuite solution design experience. In this post, Laura shares her perspective and insight related to the advantages of working with a NetSuite implementation partner, the importance of boutique partners, and provides a glimpse into her background and industry experience.

Why Leverage a Partner on Your NetSuite Implementation?

As customers embark on their NetSuite journey, they are often faced with the question of how to best approach their implementation. To shed light on this, we asked Laura her experience and input on when she found it most beneficial to bring in an Alliance partner and she said:

“I often recommended leveraging a NetSuite partner for a number of reasons. The first reason being that partners will be able to provide a more consultative and personalized experience. Second, partners specialize in certain industries and even sub-industries which allows them to bring industry specific knowledge and best practices to the table. They will also often create IP or solutions for those industries that nicely compliment what NetSuite can do “out of the box”. Lastly, because of their deep experience in certain verticals and areas of functionality, they will often be able to implement quickly and efficiently while becoming a long-term strategic partner for the organization.”

Why a Boutique NetSuite Partner?

At SquareWorks, we partner with our customers to elevate their NetSuite experience through automation solutions and consulting services. Our products include Automate, a NetSuite-native financial automation platform that enhances and takes NetSuite to the next level. We also provide exceptional consulting services and partner with our customers to deliver high-quality NetSuite implementations, optimization services and ongoing support.

During Laura’s tenure of working with NetSuite customers and prospective customers, she found that boutique partners offer a highly consultative approach to implementations, which is often valued greatly by customers seeking extra support during the process. Choosing a new ERP solution involves a significant investment and who you trust to maximize that investment while mitigating the risks associated with any software implementation can be key to measuring overall success.
