NETSUITE OFFERS CHANNEL PROMOTION FOR ERP VARS
San Mateo, Calif. - In a bid to draw in more value-added resellers of its cloud-based accounting and business management software, NetSuite Inc. is offering VARs a 100 percent margin on first-year license subscriptions.
The NetSuite SP 100 Program also offers 10 percent margins on renewals, as well as the sales and technical training, sales cycle assistance, and marketing support that it already offers its channel.
The company has about 200 VARs in its channel, which was launched in 2002, but it hopes to boost that number by building a revenue model that's more like the one resellers of on-premise software are used to. It is particularly interested in drawing in Microsoft Dynamics resellers.
The promotion is expected to last at least through April.
