NetSuite: Run Your Business From Your iPhone
Posted on September 25, 2009 |
This is a cross-post from another BusinessWeek blog, Byte of the Apple, by my colleague, Arik Hesseldahl.
Word from NetSuite today is that it has released a pretty powerful application for the iPhone and iPod touch that more or less gives you the ability to do anything NetSuite does from your iPhone.
So what does it do? Customer Relationship Management, Enterprise Resource Planning, and it tracks data from e-commerce sales, all of it running in the cloud, though in most cases, these are functions that would keep you at your desktop or notebook. If you’re already a NetSuite user you’re pretty much ready to go once you install the app on your device which becomes your go-anywhere NetSuite dashboard. And if your company has set up some custom data fields that are specific to your business, they come right into the iPhone.
And yes, it’s free, and all the features are covered in your NetSuite subscription fees.
