Soundcast chooses Acumatica cloud ERP over Oracle NetSuite

Soundcast, a global provider of wireless outdoor, Bluetooth speaker solutions, was spun off from a separate company. Starting fresh, they had to make a big decision. Should they stay with their parent company’s software choice (Oracle NetSuite) or go with another service?

After a demonstration by their IT partner, Collins Computing, they went with Acumatica’s cloud ERP software, implementing it on a SaaS license and selecting Acumatica’s Financial Management and Distribution Edition modules. Says Soundcast’s Accountant, Elia Sepulveda, “Everything that we wanted in our software, Acumatica had it.”

Everything includes a pricing model that doesn’t charge per user, offsite access to data for all team members, sales data available directly in a central location, user-friendly navigation, simplified financial reporting, and deployment flexibility with cloud, private cloud, or hybrid options.

“NetSuite is solely a Cloud service—in my eyes, that seems like more of a lease,” says Soundcast’s Information Systems/Technical Support Rep Norman Bradley. “You never own the system.”

Norman points out that with Acumatica, “We can actually have ownership of the software and we can have our own data hosted on our own premise. So that for me is a big deal, being in IT. That for me is what sold me. There’s even an option to have a hybrid system, where you can have the data and sync up to the Cloud for more security.”

The differences between Oracle NetSuite and Acumatica don’t end there. “If we would have gone a NetSuite route, we would have been out at least $10,000 more for the service per year.”

In addition to the savings, Soundcast enjoys:

• Seamless integration with EDI, which puts orders directly into Acumatica and eliminates duplicate efforts
• Access to Acumatica on any mobile device or tablet
• Data accessibility through a data channel, which allows the exposing of data to a public network (not allowed by Oracle NetSuite)
• Norman is feeling positive about the future. “I see good things coming out of Acumatica at this point.”
