NetSuite vs FreeAgent: Which is a better fit?

Svetlana: I'm Svetlana and I'm the executive director of an organization that has a staff of three. I would recommend NetSuite and give it a five star rating. For NetSuite we used a manual process, mostly spreadsheets, and Excel. That was very cumbersome and time-consuming. So NetSuite consolidated all of our data, keeping record tracking processes into one place and made it a lot cleaner and a lot smoother for us. NetSuite was a great option for us because they have a pro bono program and is a not-for-profit organization that appealed to us right off the bat. Being a user now for 11 years, we have found so many other reasons to continue to use NetSuite, they've been wonderful to us. Getting started with NetSuite took a little bit of a learning curve. It was definitely for someone with a background in IT or databases, but once we got going and figured out how to implement the system, continuing to use it and learn with the system, they give you all the right tools to grow and learn. So although it was a difficult learning curve, it's paid off in the end. If you're considering getting NetSuite, make sure that you have someone designated for the implementation process and map out how you plan on using the software. Have at least an idea of what types of things you're going to be using it for because it will make things smoother and easier down the road. But also don't feel like you have to know everything. The team is wonderful and they do help you along the way. So if it looks like a good fit for you, I say, go for it.

John C.: Hi, my name's John, I'm a company director. I give FreeAgent five stars out of five stars. For more reviews like this click below. Before we looked at FreeAgent, we looked at several other accounting software packages. We looked at QuickBooks and we looked at Sage. The reasons we chose FreeAgent, mainly because, A, it linked to our banking software really well, it integrated with our banking software really well. And B because the functionality had suited our business. The onboarding of FreeAgent into our business was very, very easy and very quick, I was in control of it at all times. It connects to my bank accounts. It connects to my credit cards. It makes accounting really, really simple for my business. I would recommend if people are looking at accounting packages for a small to medium business, FreeAgent is ideal. It allows me to control salaries. It allows us to look at our VAT, our tax, and our cashflow all in one place. And it's really, really simple to integrate with your bank accounts.
