Key Takeaways from a Night with NetSuite

NetSuite hit it out of the park with their lineup at their ‘Navigating a Winner Takes All World: How to Own Your Next’ business tour that was hosted at Wrigley Field last month. Attendees enjoyed the featured speakers and cheering the Chicago Cubs on to a 15-5 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. Go Cubs!

The ‘Next Ready Business Tour’ featured Ranga Bodla, NetSuite Head of Industry Marketing, who promoted NetSuite’s new SuiteSuccess offering as well as their new Advanced Revenue Management solution.  Ranga reiterated what we heard at SuiteWorld this year – Oracle is committed to letting NetSuite be NetSuite, and are investing heavily in their continued success.
