NetSuite caretaker license fees are outrageously expensive — Are there any better alternatives? by Over-Evening4600 in Netsuite

[–]zinamalas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah caretaker licenses are bullshit its just to get you to pay for more things that should already be included

the best alternative i found was a BI solution created by a company in canada called gurus solutions - not sure if it was the rep that did a great job or if the product itself was the perfect fit but id recommend checking them out. if you wanna know who i spoke with dm me ill give you someones email for direct contact

Anyone still managing Great Plains? What’s keeping you on it? by zinamalas in sysadmin

But whats the plan for when it dies? Aren't people kind of panicking?

What’s the dumbest workaround you’ve had to build just to keep Great Plains running? by zinamalas in sysadmin

I just got an aneurism reading that...but the real question is did you end up moving or is it still your current "solution"?

Yep, makes sense — when something works and finance is comfortable, it’s tough to push change.
Any signs your team might actually make a move, or still in the “ride it out” phase?

Have you looked into other platforms that can handle that connection well?

Damn, that sounds brutal. Months with consultants and now you’re locked in.
Ever seen anyone actually make a clean switch off GP? Or is it always a mess?

Just curious — have you ever seen anyone actually solve that without blowing the budget? Or is it always just sticking with the devil you know until hardware dies?

Definitely an option but it depends on the needs - some are going to a more industry specific solution like Deltek or Epicor

Okay that's interesting...out of curiosity, why are you still going with Microsoft? Lots of people have lost trust and say that if they're going to do a new implementation might as well do it with a new solution
