Traditionally, application customization in on-premise or hosted cloud applications can be synonymous with high costs and long development times. Additionally, there is the very real fear that heavy customizations to an application can lock a company on the version the customizations were developed on because upgrading could break the code the customizations were built on. Learn the many reasons why NetSuite customers prefer to work with a reliable NetSuite partner to customize and support their software.
Customizations in NetSuite
True cloud platforms like NetSuite use a unified data model—the entire system and all elements are built on a single source of code. The “one source of truth” approach that the NetSuite platform is built on, in a true cloud, makes customizations and developing add-ons to the systems more secure and simplified.
NetSuite upgrades should not negatively affect or break any customizations in NetSuite that were done using NetSuite Leading Practices. To ensure your enhancements or custom code follows best practices, work with your in-house certified NetSuite expert or a NetSuite Solution Provider with experience in NetSuite customizations.
How Upgrades work in NetSuite:
- There are two major upgrades per year – learn about the latest 2022.1 release.
- Every single NetSuite customer account on the same version, 100% of the time.
- Ongoing minor upgrades throughout the year.
- Release preview environment to test all new features before they go live.
