Customer relationship management (CRM) software has become invaluable for businesses seeking to manage interactions and drive growth. NetSuite CRM, part of the popular NetSuite cloud ERP platform, offers a flexible and powerful option to strengthen customer connections.
At its core, NetSuite CRM focuses on capturing and accessing customer data across the organization to build lasting relationships. It combines critical capabilities such as marketing automation, sales force automation, customer support and service, and analytics within a unified platform.
For many fast-scaling companies, NetSuite CRM provides an agile way of visibility into the entire customer lifecycle within one robust system. Let’s explore some key aspects of NetSuite CRM:
Flexible Data Model
Unlike other CRM systems with rigid data structures, NetSuite allows customizing records and fields to match specific business needs. Companies can track detailed customer attributes, interactions, and transaction histories within flexible data records.
Whether your business calls them clients, patrons, or members, NetSuite CRM allows tailoring terminology. The flexible data model supports custom field creation to capture unique customer details. Required fields, optional fields, and picklist values further adapt the system to business needs.
Businesses can also model other entities with custom records, such as projects, vendors, or assets. These deep customization abilities make NetSuite a scalable CRM for business growth and evolution.
Omnichannel Interactions
Today’s consumers engage across multiple channels, from email and texts to social media and web chat. NetSuite CRM enables managing this complex web of omnichannel customer interactions within a single platform.
Options include call center integration for telephone orders, email interaction tracking, website visit monitoring, and social media engagement. Activity history preserves customer conversations across channels alongside manual notes entered by employees.
Calendaring abilities allow scheduling follow-ups related to customer interactions: email templates and marketing automation link campaigns to individual recipients. NetSuite CRM aims to help teams deliver unified, personalized cross-channel experiences.
Sales Force and Marketing Automation
Sales and marketing play key front-line roles in an organization’s customer engagement. NetSuite CRM includes tailored capabilities to enhance the effectiveness of these teams.
Sales force automation (SFA) tools focus on optimizing sales processes, including contact and opportunity management, lead scoring, pipeline forecasting, and commission tracking. Features aim to improve sales productivity and decision-making.
Similarly, marketing automation (MA) capabilities help orchestrate and monitor outbound campaigns across channels. From building targeted email lists to tracking open and click rates, NetSuite supports data-driven campaign execution and analysis.
When paired, SFA and MA ensure insights gained in one area inform strategies in the other. Smooth handoffs between qualified leads and sales accounts are vital to boosting revenue.
Analytics and Reporting
Harnessing data to drive decision-making represents a key business priority. NetSuite CRM provides real-time dashboards, reporting, and analytics for all collected customer data.
Flexible tools allow custom reports on activity metrics, sales pipeline performance, marketing campaign ROI, channel effectiveness, and more. At-a-glance dashboards spotlight trends while custom reports deliver detailed data exports.
Analytics assist with identifying upsell opportunities, monitoring customer health scores, optimizing channel mix, and other vital tasks. The integrated platform ensures analytics provide a single source of truth using consistent live data.
Extensibility and Integration
While feature-rich out of the box, NetSuite also allows customization and extension of functionality through a range of free and paid options.
SuiteApps extends features using integrated third-party applications available via the SuiteApp marketplace. Free SuiteBundles activate bundled functionality for everyday use cases like field service and e-commerce.
For advanced needs, the SuiteCloud Platform offers flexibility for complex customizations using scripts, workflows, and APIs. The platform allows modifying screens, building custom functionality, and integrating external applications.
These extensibility options make NetSuite CRM adaptable over time beyond standard capabilities. Businesses can cost-effectively scale unique processes without migrating between multiple platforms.
