Unlock Real‑Time Business Insights with SuiteAnalytics (and Yes, It’s Included)

NetSuite’s SuiteAnalytics delivers powerful, real-time business intelligence tools—fully embedded and included in every NetSuite instance, at no extra cost. This means current customers and prospects alike can start leveraging rich analytics immediately, without purchasing add‑ons.

What SuiteAnalytics Brings to Your Organization

1. Dashboards, KPIs & Saved Searches Built In
   Access real-time operational data via dashboards, key performance indicators (KPIs), and saved searches. Drag‑and‑drop customization makes personalization easy, and drill‑downs help move from snapshot to transaction detail in just a few clicks.
2. SuiteAnalytics Workbooks: Drag‑and‑Drop Data Analysis
   Workbooks unite datasets, pivot tables, charts, and formula fields in a powerful no‑code exploratory environment. Business users can build multi-table joins, custom calculations, and interactive views—all with a visual interface and far less need for IT support.
3. Built-in Analytics Data Source
   Your NetSuite data becomes a consistent, governed analytics layer. Fields are exposed uniformly across Workbook visualizations—including hierarchical and custom record data—ensuring trust and clarity in reporting.
4. Faster Multi-Dataset Insights
   Users can link multiple datasets into a single Workbook via drag‑and‑drop (no SuiteScript needed), making combined analytics across sales, finance, inventory, and other modules seamless.
5. Real-Time, Cost-Effective BI
   Because SuiteAnalytics works inside NetSuite, there’s no need for ETL (Extract, Transform, Load)—a process typically used to move and clean data from multiple systems before analysis. With SuiteAnalytics, your data is already in the system and ready for real-time analysis. That means no exporting, no manual integration, and no added cost for external business intelligence tools. Businesses save time, avoid silos, and access cleaner data more quickly.

Why It Matters: Benefits for Decision‑Makers`

• Immediate Access: All NetSuite users get analytics capabilities from day one—no waiting, no deployment delays.
• Self‑Service Power: Across roles like finance, sales, operations, and marketing, teams can build their reports—skipping reliance on IT or BI teams.
• Strategic Insight: Custom KPIs, dashboards, pivots, and formula-driven scorecards spotlight trends, anomalies, and opportunities.
• Governed Data: With consistent metadata and analytics source management, all stakeholders see the same underlying data structure—the “single version of truth.”
