Singapore—18 February 2014— NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that Lava Protocols (Malaysia), CloudMate (Thailand) and Introv (Hong Kong), have joined the NetSuite Solution Provider Program to meet increasing demand for cloud solutions across Asia. They join a growing number of technology leaders in the region that are adding NetSuite's cloud business management solutions to their product offerings to enable Asian businesses to run their core business processes in the cloud, including ERP, CRM, ecommerce, professional services automation (PSA) and more. These partners provide NetSuite's expanding customer base with local specialist support, advice and implementation services to optimise its leading solutions throughout the region.

"As the market for cloud solutions continues to grow rapidly across Asia, we are constantly looking for new partners that offer extensive industry and vertical expertise," said Mark Troselj, NetSuite's managing director for APAC and Japan. "Our new partnerships can enrich and extend our suite of cloud-based business management software solutions in the region. This enables businesses of all sizes to reap the benefits that the cloud delivers, such as advanced functionality, reduced operational IT costs and risks, rapid deployment, speed and the agility to launch new business operations and subsidiaries quickly. It also means that time to market is significantly faster than on-premise software solutions."

Designed to help solution providers transform their business model to fully capitalise on the revenue growth opportunity of the NetSuite cloud, the NetSuite Solution Provider Program delivers unprecedented services that begin during recruitment and range from business planning, sales, marketing and PS enablement, to training and education.
