NetSuite Pricing Explained in 5 Simple Steps

We can’t give you an exact price, but here’s how NetSuite pricing is determined for your business.

NetSuite Licensing Costs

Your price depends on your company size and the number of user licenses you need. NetSuite offers different editions:

NetSuite Edition Pricing

Starter/Limited Edition – For small businesses (up to 10 users, 1 legal entity, ≤50 employees).
Standard/Mid-Market Edition – For growing businesses (11-1,000 users, multiple legal entities).
Premium/Enterprise Edition – For large companies (unlimited users, complex needs).

NetSuite Service Tiers

Your edition also has a service tier, which sets limits on users, storage, and transaction volume:

Tier	Users	Storage (GB)	Monthly Transaction Lines
Standard	100	100	200,000
Premium	1,000	1,000	2,000,000
Enterprise	2,000	2,000	10,000,000
Ultimate	4,000	4,000	50,000,000

What’s Included in NetSuite Editions

All NetSuite editions include CRM and ERP features. Here’s what you get:

NetSuite CRM:

Marketing automation – Manage email campaigns, track leads, and run marketing programs.
Sales automation – Handle leads, track opportunities, and forecast sales.
Reporting & analytics – Get real-time data for better decisions.
Order management – Create quotes, process orders, and track revenue.
Sales forecasting – Predict sales performance with real-time insights.
Partner management – Work with partners through shared portals and lead tracking.

NetSuite ERP Features

NetSuite ERP helps manage your business operations. Here’s what it includes:

Financial management – Handle general ledger, accounts payable/receivable, fixed assets, and financial reporting.
Global business tools – Manage international operations, currencies, and compliance.
Inventory tracking – Monitor stock levels and movements in real time.
Order processing – Manage orders from entry to fulfillment and invoicing.
Supply chain tools – Plan demand, manage inventory, and work with vendors.
Warehouse management – Track inventory locations and streamline picking/packing/shipping.
Accounting – Record transactions, manage journal entries, and maintain compliance.

NetSuite Pricing Per User

NetSuite charges a monthly fee per user, but that’s only part of the cost. The total price depends on:

Base platform fees
License term length
Additional modules
Customizations

The real cost per user isn’t just the user fee. To find it, add up all costs and divide by the total number of users.

Each business pays differently based on its specific needs.

NetSuite User Licensing

NetSuite offers different user licenses. You need to know what access each employee requires. The NetSuite Edition depends on how many full user licenses you need.

Full User License—Employees who use NetSuite regularly need this. It comes with set roles like accountant, sales rep, or administrator, but custom roles count, too.

Anyone with these requires a full license.
Employee Center License – These users can only do a few things. They can track project time, check or enter PTO, and update expense reports.

Does NetSuite Have “Read-Only Access”?

No, NetSuite doesn’t offer “read-only” access.

To view or export data, you need a full user license. But all data can go into Excel. If you only need a couple of reports, someone with a full license can export them for you. Or they can set up an email to send you an Excel file regularly.

NetSuite Module Pricing

Every NetSuite edition includes ERP and CRM modules.
Some businesses only need these. If that’s you, skip to step 3. But others need extra modules to manage their work.

NetSuite has ready-made modules you can add. Do you need them during setup? We can help you determine.

Modules are sold in bundles called editions. For example, the SuiteSuccess Manufacturing Premium Edition includes ERP, CRM, and six more modules.

The price depends on your NetSuite edition. There’s no single price for everyone.NetSuite’s eCommerce tool is SuiteCommerce. If you run an online store, check it out.

NetSuite eCommerce Pricing

SuiteCommerce costs vary. It depends on user count, the level you pick, and monthly transactions.

NetSuite offers two levels:

Site Builder—This is the basic option from 2004. It’s not very flexible, but it might work for small businesses with simple needs.

SuiteCommerce is a complete eCommerce solution that updates automatically, supports global sites, and provides solid business data. It connects with NetSuite’s CRM, ERP, and inventory tools.

SuiteCommerce Advanced – This lets you customize everything. It’s likely only needed for big eCommerce businesses with many products and unique features.

If you use something like Shopify, you’ll need to connect it to NetSuite for all the data to work together. Using SuiteCommerce skips that step. Everything connects without extra effort.

How to Determine if NetSuite Customizations Are Necessary

You might need NetSuite customizations if:

Automation – NetSuite handles basic tasks, but some workflows need custom code.
Industry-specific needs – The standard setup may not cover everything your business requires.
Reporting & dashboards – If you need reports with custom calculations or saved data, you’ll likely need adjustments.
Integrations – Connecting NetSuite with other tools usually requires custom work.

NetSuite can be tailored to fit your business, but the type of customization depends on your needs:

SuiteFlow (Workflows) – A no-code option for simple automation, good for non-technical teams or saving on development costs.
SuiteScript – Uses JavaScript for advanced customizations, requiring developer expertise.

Choose Where to Buy NetSuite

You can buy NetSuite in two ways: through a licensed provider or directly from NetSuite.

Buying Through a Licensed Provider

A licensed provider is a good choice if your business has complex processes or needs customization. They offer:

Implementation help
Development support
Training and ongoing assistance

Providers give more personalized attention than buying directly from NetSuite. They may also have pre-built integrations, saving you time and development costs.

Buying Directly from NetSuite

This option works best for smaller businesses with simple processes and minimal software needs. NetSuite has built-in integrations, but they only work with specific software.

Before deciding, check if NetSuite’s direct option supports all the tools and processes your business uses.
