Significant Differentiators between Acumatica and Oracle NetSuite
Full relational database export: Oracle NetSuite users cannot directly export their data in a relational format, making it difficult and costly to migrate their data. Acumatica will never hold your data hostage – both our built-in automated backup service plus our snapshot feature allow you to have a fully relational copy of your data at any time.
Customizations using industry standard tools: Both products are highly configurable, but Acumatica is built using industry standard C# and .NET. Oracle NetSuite uses proprietary development tools, making customizations more difficult.
Upgrade on your schedule: To support their required multi-tenant model, Oracle NetSuite limits when users can choose to update their software. Acumatica provides users the option to upgrade at any time they choose; Oracle NetSuite charges users for this option.
Flexible licensing options: Every company is different, and some prefer a depreciable capital expense versus an ongoing operating expense. Both products are available through subscription licensing, but Acumatica also offers perpetual licensing. Check Acumatica ERP Pricing.
Multiple deployment options (cloud, on premises, hybrid): While both products are available in the cloud, Acumatica also supports on premises and hybrid deployments for companies that want to keep sensitive data in-house.
TCO: Both products charge by computing resources consumed, but Oracle NetSuite also charges per user. These costs increase as your company grows, increasing your total cost of ownership over time.

About Oracle NetSuite
Established in 1998, NetSuite went public in 2007 and was acquired by Oracle in 2016. Written before many of the latest web technologies were standardized, Oracle NetSuite continues to be limited in their deployment options, their customization language, and their database export capabilities.
Conversely, Acumatica was designed from the start to be accessible both through the cloud and on premises using modern web technology. We offer access to your data anytime, flexible licensing options, and no cost for adding users, lowering your company’s TCO.
We believe Acumatica provides the best price/value, performance, functionality, and ease of use of any ERP product available for small- and medium-sized businesses.
