SYDNEY and SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that Australian IT services company The CN Group (CN), has joined the NetSuite Solution Provider Program to strengthen its leadership in cloud integration services in Australia. CN, one of SAP's first Business ByDesign partners in Australia, added NetSuite in January 2013 to its stable of cloud-based software solutions to meet the growing demand for cloud business management solutions in the region. NetSuite's cloud business management software suite can enable CN's customers to run their core business processes, such as ERP, CRM, financials, Ecommerce, professional services automation (PSA) and more, while reducing IT hardware demands, providing real-time business visibility, and improving operational efficiency and productivity.

Established in 2000, CN is a privately owned Australian IT services company headquartered in Sydney. CN delivers solutions to more than 200 customers in the medium and large enterprise markets and has over 80 employees operating from offices in Sydney, Central Coast, Newcastle, Gold Coast and Brisbane. NetSuite delivers the business benefits that CN's clients are looking for such as advanced functionality, reduced operational IT costs and risks, rapid deployment, speed and the agility to launch new business operations and subsidiaries quickly, with a faster time to market than on-premise software solutions.

"CN has joined a growing number of partners around the globe who have added NetSuite to their cloud-based ERP platform solutions," said Brian Pereira, CEO of The CN Group. "Our decision to adopt NetSuite was made after assessing its value proposition as a partner and for our clients. Making the decision to add NetSuite into our cloud ERP solution portfolio was not a trivial one.  We are in the business of providing only the best IT solutions to our clients and we believe that NetSuite provides the greatest possible outcome for our customers."

Within its first 90 days alone, CN signed a major deal with Lawler Partners, which operates in the accounting services industry and is using NetSuite to underpin its own growing portfolio of business process outsourcing. NetSuite was an ideal fit for its business needs, providing all of the functionality it needed at an affordable price and with the scalability to grow with its business.

"Securing a major client within 90 days was testimony to the NetSuite Solution Provider Program and the support my team receives – NetSuite knows how to help partners be successful," said Mr. Pereira. "Don't get me wrong, we have to work hard too, but it is much easier with the level of support NetSuite provides."

According to Mark Troselj, managing director of APAC and Japan for NetSuite: "CN has a long history of offering cloud-based business management solutions in Australia and we welcome the team into our Solution Provider Program. CN can find new levels of efficiency and growth, as the market for cloud business management solutions continues to grow within Australia."
