"Bringing together the two largest business application clouds is a smart move by NetSuite and salesforce.com that should benefit customers and the SaaS industry at large," said Michael Fauscette, Group VP, Software Business Solutions at IDC. "SuiteCloud Connect for Salesforce.com gives customers the ability to integrate a leading SaaS CRM product and a leading on-demand financial application in a way that encourages the use of robust, third-party integration technologies. More of this kind of flexibility and openness is needed to unlock the huge potential of cloud computing."

SuiteCloud Connect for Salesforce.com empowers sales teams to manage customer relationships with capabilities beyond the scope of traditional CRM by making NetSuite’s integrated ERP and Ecommerce capabilities—including order management, fulfillment, and accounting—available within salesforce CRM. The various integration solutions provided by SuiteCloud Connect also synchronises account information and product and pricing data between the two applications, so that all departments can act upon accurate information the moment it is available, ensuring timely and consistent operations. Stronger visibility into back-office customer data enables sales teams to address needs that go directly to improving customer satisfaction, including service issues, billing, and order and shipping status.

SuiteCloud Connect Integration Partners

SuiteCloud Connect for Salesforce.com includes a number of cloud-based integration applications built for the latest versions of both NetSuite (version 2009 Release 1) and Salesforce.com (Q1 09). These applications were built by independent software vendors (ISVs) who are also charter members of NetSuite’s SuiteCloud Developer Network, announced March 19. These ISVs include Celigo, Boomi, Pervasive Software and Cast Iron Systems:

* Celigo: The Celigo Salesforce-NetSuite Connector provides a seamless, real-time integration between NetSuite and salesforce, with unprecedented levels of synchronization and visibility between the two systems. Ready for use out of the box, the Connector can be installed in a matter of days and customized to support virtually any business process. Available as an Integration-as-a-Service, the solution is fully managed to ensure uninterrupted service. The Connector is certified on the Force.com AppExchange. http://www.celigo.com/salesforce-netsuite.html.

"Through our years of experience integrating SaaS applications, we have found that customers generally prefer prebuilt, solutionoriented integrations that are immediately ready for use but flexible enough to work the way their businesses run," said Jan Arendtsz, CEO of Celigo. "Our Salesforce-NetSuite Connector is a complete solution, offered as a fully managed Integration-as-a-Service, not just an integration tool or platform. It has been meticulously designed and architected from the ground up by a team with deep domain expertise in both of these applications as well as in SaaS integration."

* Boomi, a market and technology leader for on-demand integration, offers a pure SaaS integration platform called AtomSphere that includes connectors for NetSuite and salesforce that have been certified on the Force.com AppExchange. With AtomSphere users can build custom integrations with drag-and-drop ease or take advantage of pre-built integrations which can be deployed on demand. Just like NetSuite and salesforce, AtomSphere delivers enterprise-grade functionality with all the cost savings and benefits associated with a SaaS solution. http://www.boomi.com/solutions/netsuite

“We’ve run NetSuite internally for years and recently purchased and integrated salesforce using AtomSphere,” said Todd Palmieri, Boomi CFO. “It’s a powerful combination to drive our business and having the right integration is imperative to maximizing the value of our investments.”

* Pervasive Software’s multi-purpose data integration platform, Pervasive Data Integrator, accelerates the sharing of information between multiple data stores, SaaS and on-premise applications, including NetSuite and salesforce. Pervasive integration allows customers to re-use the same software for both real-time and large-volume batch integration challenges. With more SaaS deployments than any other integration vendor, and thousands of customers worldwide, Pervasive makes the case that Pervasive Data Integrator and its cloud platform, Pervasive DataCloud, are the integration solution of choice for systems integrators and IT organizations. www.pervasivedataintegration.com

“Customers with SaaS applications like NetSuite and salesforce expect robust functionality combined with ease of use, and that’s why Pervasive is excited to have created a true integration for NetSuite and salesforce.com,” said Mike Hoskins, Pervasive CTO and general manager, Integration Products for Pervasive. “Pervasive Data Integrator has the depth to meet these advanced needs and in combination with our cloud-based platform, Pervasive DataCloud, allows us to reach multiple endpoints and provide very complex business logic that is hidden from the end user.”

“NetSuite’s ERP suites offer the same simplicity and rapid deployment benefits that salesforce.com’s CRM users have enjoyed for years,” said Chandar Pattabhiram, Cast Iron’s vice president of product marketing. “The key to maximizing the value of this combined solution is to automate common business processes and provide a common view of data.
