“NetSuite is very customizable and the ease of use saves us a lot of
time and about two full-time people in finance with help of MIG & CO on implementation.”
Thrillist
Customer Success
Fast-growing media and ecommerce company avoids the expense of two full-time personnel in
finance using NetSuite compared to an on-premise software alternative.
Implementation by NetSuite Solution Provider partner MIG & Co. accelerated time to value and
helped Thrillist take better advantage of NetSuite capabilities.
Thrillist revenue has increased 50% in the year since NetSuite went live in July 2012.
NetSuite Financial Planning used for budgeting and forecasting based on financials
consolidated across multiple business units.
Real-time visibility into financial and sales data eliminates reporting delays and guesswork
with previous QuickBooks system, supporting data-driven decision-making.
Future implementation phase will deploy NetSuite Advanced Inventory to replace an on-premise
homegrown legacy application to manage stock in Brooklyn warehouse.
Ecommerce sales of gadgets, gear, apparel and more through JackThreads (www.jackthreads.com)
subsidiary reconciled in NetSuite back-end.
NetSuite helps streamline invoicing to advertisers for ad content on Thrillist and
JackThreads websites and two million daily emails to followers.
Sales and finance teams use NetSuite for timely visibility into sales pipeline and revenue
opportunities.
Challenges
QuickBooks lacked scalability for fast-growing Thrillist as it expanded to new markets,
advertisers and audiences, typically men ages 18–35.
On-premised system hindered visibility and efficiency for personnel at Thrillist
headquarters in Manhattan, warehouse in Brooklyn and customer service in Ohio.
Solution
MIG & Co. selected for NetSuite design, data migration and training as a NetSuite
integrator and reseller serving organizations in the metropolitan New York area.
MIG's iterative process and collaboration with NetSuite Professional Services effective in
identifying needs and aligning technology to meet strategic goals.
SuiteApp from NetSuite SuiteCloud Developer Network Partner Concur streamlines time and
expense reporting.
