A New Era for NetSuite Users
The next wave of competitive advantage is being driven by AI, automation, and smarter workflows, not just incremental feature updates. AI and automation are no longer optional, they’re essential for running efficient, resilient, and data-driven businesses. NetSuite recognized this shift and has boldly answered with NetSuite Next: a reinvention of the platform that embeds AI and automation across the full spectrum of enterprise operations.
More than a software update, NetSuite Next reimagines how ERP systems can collaborate with people, integrating AI, automation, and conversational intelligence directly into everyday business processes.
“NetSuite Next represents a major leap forward, not just for the product, but for how businesses will operate. It’s bringing AI and automation to the center of every business process, and that’s something our clients are already eager to take advantage of.”
– Steve May, VP of NetSuite, Terillium
What Is NetSuite Next?
NetSuite Next is a next-generation update that transforms the traditional ERP experience into a collaborative, conversational, and intelligent workspace.
NetSuite Next is reimagining how an ERP system can work with and for its users. Rather than forcing businesses to conform to rigid workflows, NetSuite Next is designed to be:
- Collaborative, not transactional – AI is embedded not as a siloed add-on, but as a natural partner in how you work
- Intuitive and conversational – You can use natural language to search, act, and interact
- Adaptive and trustworthy – Agents and workflows operate under your control, with full transparency
- Seamless and non-disruptive – Transitioning to NetSuite Next takes “the press of a button” (no data migration or major rework)
One of the standout features is Ask Oracle, a natural-language assistant that surfaces insights, actions, and explanations directly within the system. Whether you’re navigating menus, analyzing trends, or optimizing processes, Ask Oracle helps you ask questions in everyday language and then acts on your behalf when appropriate.
NetSuite Next is engineered for speed, scale, reliability, and responsiveness, all critical when AI is expected to feel as fluid and interactive as working with a human teammate.
How NetSuite Next Changes the Game
NetSuite Next represents a fundamental shift in what business management software can do. It brings together the power of AI with the trust and flexibility that NetSuite customers expect.
- Smarter Decisions, Faster – AI is now built into the system’s foundation, empowering users to forecast, analyze, and act instantly without switching between tools or exporting data.
- Efficiency Through Automation – Repetitive manual work becomes automated. From approvals to reporting, NetSuite Next streamlines processes across finance, operations, and supply chain.
- A System That Understands You – With natural language search and AI-driven assistance, NetSuite Next adapts to how people actually work, intuitive, conversational, and context-aware.
- Trustworthy, Explainable AI – Every recommendation, action, or prediction can be traced back to its source, giving organizations confidence in their AI-driven decisions.
Why NetSuite Next Matters for Businesses
NetSuite Next isn’t just about adding new bells and whistles. It represents a shift in how businesses think about their systems:
- Efficiency at scale: Routine, repetitive tasks, such as approvals, reconciliations, forecasting adjustments, become intelligently automated. Time saved here compounds across the organization.
- Better decisions, faster: Because AI is woven into the system, users don’t have to switch tools, export data, or build custom scripts to get predictive insights or scenario modeling.
- Democratized intelligence: Rather than restricting data and intelligence to power users or analysts, NetSuite Next empowers all roles, from operations to finance to sales, to work with AI assistants in context.
- Lower risk, higher trust: AI in business is only as good as its governance. NetSuite Next ensures that agents and automation operate within your permissions, audit trails, and roles. You can see how conclusions were reached and intervene when needed.
- No migration headache: Perhaps one of the most compelling aspects is the ability to “flip on” NetSuite Next. Your existing data, customizations, extensions, and workflows carry over. There’s no need to rip-and-replace or endure a lengthy conversion.
For current NetSuite users, upgrading to NetSuite Next is seamless. For businesses evaluating ERP platforms, it offers a future-ready path that merges human decision-making with AI precision.
