“We had to adapt to Sage when we were working with it. Now it’s the opposite. We can easily adapt NetSuite to what we want to do.” Antoine Courault, Head of Finance, Lemonway

Replacing Rigid Sage System With NetSuite

Simplifying payments fuels growth
For European businesses seeking to simplify payment processing across borders while complying with European anti-money laundering and know your customer (KYC) requirements, Lemonway offers a quick and easy way to complete transactions for the buyer and to manage the process for sellers. It’s driven significant growth, reaching 150 employees in 2021 with 70% revenue growth over the previous year.
Growth creates accounting pains
While Lemonway was simplifying payment processing for its customers, its own internal Sage financial system was straining under the company’s growth. Navigating the system was cumbersome, the company couldn’t adapt the software to specific needs for financial planning and analysis, and handling Lemonway’s complex invoicing procedures was labor intensive.
OneWorld over SAP
Lemonway brought in a new head of finance to migrate to a new ERP system and selected NetSuite OneWorld over SAP Business ByDesign. NetSuite helped to immediately reduce the time it took to generate invoices from 10 days to five, while reducing errors and subsequent customer service issues. Where the previous Sage system was inflexible, users can now add a new field to a report in as little as 10 seconds in NetSuite.
Targeting dunning, planning and budgeting
With OneWorld, Lemonway can manage the business, including its international subsidiaries, with just one accountant. It plans to further reduce its invoicing process to three days and add NetSuite Planning and Budgeting, dunning and revenue management.
