McGladrey to partner with NetSuite for cloud-based ERP solution

Leading Professional Services Firm RSM McGladrey Expands Cloud ERP Practice Based on NetSuite

NetSuite SuiteWorld 2011, SAN FRANCISCO—May 11, 2011—NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP software suites, and RSM McGladrey, one of the nation's leading professional services firms providing tax and consulting services, today announced they will partner to offer enterprise-grade cloud computing solutions and services. RSM McGladrey selected NetSuite as a strategic cloud ERP partner following a thorough investigation that considered dozens of factors, including solution maturity, infrastructure, vertical functionality and client awareness. RSM McGladrey has reached an agreement in principle to become a NetSuite reseller and Solution Provider, with its Technology Services practice offering the full spectrum of NetSuite cloud solutions, including ERP, Ecommerce and Professional Services Automation (PSA) through its 90 US offices and more than 90 McGladrey Alliance member firms.

One of the top providers of ERP solutions to the mid-market, RSM McGladrey has seen a surge in demand for cloud solutions from clients who desire the efficiencies, flexibility and cost benefits of the cloud. The firm turned to NetSuite to find a complementary cloud ERP solution to its other technology services practice areas. RSM McGladrey's consultants can combine their technical expertise and business savvy with NetSuite's click-not-code customization capabilities to quickly implement recommendations to clients, enhancing efficiency and profitability.

"As we worked with our clients to understand their business requirements, we recognised the need for a robust cloud-based ERP solution and began a diligent analysis of the available solutions," said Jon Caforio, RSM McGladrey National Leader, Technology Services. "We quickly realised the depth of NetSuite's solution combined with its development platform, configurability, and industry-specific functionality was clearly an excellent option for our clients as they work with RSM McGladrey consultants to grow their businesses, manage technology and mitigate risk."

"NetSuite is an ideal fit for RSM McGladrey's technology services strategy of enabling customers to focus on their core business, rather than worrying about patching and maintaining IT systems," said Jim McGeever, COO at NetSuite. "RSM McGladrey consultants, using NetSuite, can work collaboratively with clients to create new business opportunities rather than being distracted by the nuts and bolts of IT, which is increasingly becoming a commoditized service. We are excited to support RSM McGladrey's aggressive expansion into cloud computing."
