NetSuite Optimization
Getting the most out of your NetSuite investment takes experience. We know where the hidden bottlenecks, redundancies, and opportunities for automation lie within those out-of-the-box workflows.
What is NETSUITE Optimization?
NetSuite optimization refers to the process of fine-tuning and enhancing an organization’s NetSuite ERP implementation to eliminate wasted resources, boost productivity, and achieve maximum value. This involves a detailed analysis of your unique business workflows, processes, and requirements to identify and address limitations, inefficiencies, and bottlenecks across the system.
COMMON REASONS FOR POOR NETSUITE PERFORMANCE
Troubleshooting poor NetSuite performance starts with identifying the major pitfalls. Here are some common reasons for poor performance.
Overburdened Infrastructure
- Inadequate CPU cores lead to contention
- Constrained memory limits simultaneous usage
- Undersized database space slows access
Inefficient Customizations
- Complex custom scripts cause slow load times
- Excessive custom records/fields bloat database
- Hard-coded values reduce flexibility
Integration Spaghetti
- Too many synchronous calls stall process completion
- Bloated data imports impact performance
- Broken integrations corrupt data
Limited Caching
- Minimized caching spikes DB resource usage
- Inadequate cache reset logic leads to data inconsistency
Data Volume Overload
- 100K+ transaction lines per day strains database
- 1M+ inventory records drags down search speed
- 10+ years of history multiplies access times
Unoptimized Workflows
- Redundant approval rules or reminders
- Misconfigured release processes bottleneck order fulfillment
- Broken or outdated workflow logic
Old NetSuite Version
- Outdated NetSuite versions lack latest optimizations
- Continued customizations on stale platforms increase technical debt
- Forced to implement inefficient workarounds for missing functionality
Poor Implementation Practices
- No phased rollout strains adoption
- Lack of training drives unused licenses
- Failure to set KPIs to guide optimization priority

SuiteRep has done an amazing job in improving our Netsuite environment. They’re extremely capable and wonderful to work with, helping us with not only ongoing system maintenance but also improving the systems overall, leading to incredible efficiencies and automation for my team. [I would recommend SuiteRep to] truly anyone who uses Netsuite! We all know the system isn’t the most user friendly but SuiteRep makes it a much better experience for us.
Christine, VP of Finance & Operations
SuiteRep was instrumental in business continuity when 2/3 of the Business Applications team unexpectedly turned over in the span of 2 months. They were very supportive as we began the search to back-fill and upgrade the team. They allowed us to continue to meet the needs of our internal customers. As someone who does not have a background in NetSuite, I also appreciate their knowledge and insights into how NetSuite should function. The other benefits have included having access to a development resource, documentation of their work, and a trusted NetSuite partner. I would recommend SuiteRep to any business that uses NetSuite and does not have the budget to fully staff a Business Applications team with NetSuite Admins and Developers. They have been great partners for several years.
Heather, Group Controller
SuiteRep was responsive and attentive to the many questions we asked in order to gain the confidence necessary to handle ACH Direct Origination on our own. I’d recommend SuiteRep to NetSuite users who feel overwhelmed or nervous at the prospect of figuring out a new process on their own.
Areti, Director of Accounting
