3. How long will it take to deploy the
solutions?
Dynamics 365 for Financials NetSuite
Dynamics 365 for Financials can be
deployed significantly faster than NetSuite.
The process can be completed in days, with
the actual installation process being simple
enough to complete in minutes.
Even as a cloud solution, NetSuite can take
weeks to deploy.
While they may move faster with SMBs,
NetSuite’s typical implementation will be a
professional services engagement with
traditional customization hurdles.

4. Dynamics 365 for Financials simplifies data
migration from Excel, QuickBooks, and
legacy ERP systems with the help of a built-
in self-guided migration wizard.
Even thought NetSuite provides pre-built
data maps for migration, customers often
hire a NetSuite consultant or professional
services to help complete the data
migration process.
How long will it take to learn how to use it?

5. You can set up customers or vendors,
create quotes, process orders, and submit
invoices all without leaving your inbox in
Outlook.
You can see up-to-date customer or vendor
information like balances or upcoming
shipments in Outlook so you don’t have to
toggle between applications.
With NetSuite, and any other competitor
product, you would need to open another
application to view customer information
or begin the quote process.

6. Dynamics 365 for Financials reduces
manual data entry with Optical Character
Recognition.

information from incoming documents in
your inbox, generates an invoice, and stores
the invoice against the transaction for
future analysis.
In NetSuite customers have to manually
attach an electronic image and enter
transaction data.

7. In Dynamics 365 for Financials you can
review and enter everything in one view
with FastTabs, so you can complete

clicking back and forth among tabs to view
information.

8. Dynamics 365 for Financials general ledger
structure lets you create unlimited
categories for tagging and analyzing data.
Create as many user-defined dimensions as
you need to slide and dice your data – like
department, cost center, projection,
location, customer type, division, etc.
NetSuite only has 3 possible dimensions:
Business Units, Locations and Classes.
What categories are available for analyzing
data?

9. Dynamics 365 for Financials lets you easily
drill down to transaction details and
relevant scanned images from the general
ledger.
For example, if you are looking at a posted
purchase invoice, it’s very easy to navigate
to the general ledger and see the financial
impact of that transaction.
NetSuite requires you to run a report or
click through multiple screens to get
information, and you can’t open an
attached image from the general ledger.
What information can I see from the general
ledger?

10. Dynamics 365 for Financials is ready for
work out of the box, without the need for
customization.
While NetSuite makes customization a pre-
requisite for getting started, Dynamics 365
for Financials lets you have the choice to
customize as it makes sense for your
company.
Even in the SMB market, NetSuite solutions
often require expensive and time-
consuming customization that require a full
IT department to deploy.
How is this helping me avoid a lengthy and
costly IT project?

11. Microsoft has a predictable roadmap for
Dynamics 365 for Financials and a reliable
track record of serving SMBs.
NetSuite’s future is uncertain. Oracle has a
history of acquiring companies – like Sun
and Taleo – and failing to integrate them
successfully into their product stack. In
contrast, Microsoft built Dynamics 365 for
Financials – it is a core part of Microsoft’s
offerings, not a new acquisition.
Is Microsoft committed to the SMB space?

12. Dynamics 365 for Financials’ pricing is
affordable out of the gate and predictable
in the long term, with a 5-year total cost of
ownership that is significantly lower than
NetSuite
NetSuite offers heavy discounts (which can
vary widely, but often range from 30-80%)
in the first year, but then typically increases
prices steadily every subsequent year (up to
10-20% per year). In many cases, customers
must renegotiate their contract annually
and deal with strong-arm tactics.
How will Dynamics 365 for Financials save me money
and how often is the price going to change?

13. Microsoft partners will offer flexible
payment options, including straightforward
monthly billing.
NetSuite may quote you a monthly price,
but, they do not support monthly
payments. At best, NetSuite will allow a few
large installment payments, creating
potential cash flow pressures.
What are my billing options?

14. Dynamics 365 for Financials lets you start
with what you need and grow at your own
pace. With the Appsource marketplace and
PowerApps app-builder you can customize
on your own terms.
In addition, you can cost-effectively scale
up to the Business Plan bundle, greatly
increasing your functionality for a small
increase in price.
NetSuite customers often find that they
have to pay significantly more for modules
they expected to be included (like project
management or fixed asset management
for example).
NetSuite’s add-on modules and SuiteScript
app costs thousands of dollars per year,
putting them out of reach for most SMBs.
How much will it cost for extra modules if I
need them?

15. Dynamics 365 for Financials is vastly more
affordable for SMBs from day one.
Plus, when customers are ready to step up,
they can get Sales and Marketing apps in
the Business Plan bundle for only $10 more
per user per month (Starting Spring of
2017).
NetSuite is more expensive in every
category. On top of higher per-user cost,
they charge for software and bill 1-1.5x the
subscription price for implementation.
Customers often require add-on modules,
which set them back thousands of dollars
per year.
