NetSuite competes most directly with on-premise ERP packages from the likes of Microsoft, Lawson, Infor and Epicor. Current cloud-based competitors include Workday, which focuses on ERP and HR functionality. Now that SAP is poised to enter the SaaS market with its resigned Business ByDesign suite, which is set to launch in July, NetSuite will have a direct competitor that takes the same, all-in-one suite approach encompassing ERP, CRM, sales force automation, and business intelligence. SAP also lists Web-enabled sales as a Business ByDesign capability, but Peiris said e-commerce will be a differentiator for NetSuite. "More and more manufacturers are going direct to the consumer through their Web sites," she said. "Our e-commerce capabilities let you tap into the item masters and inventory records of the ERP application, so you never end up taking an order on a Web site that you can't fulfill."
