    Misleading article

    What a misleading article.

    I can appreciate SaaS -- but this company isn't the disruptive entrant into ERP it's spun as. Compared to salesforce? I can get on the Benioff CRM bandwagon for $65/month/user. Despite being an order of magnitude more economical than Oracle's eBusiness Suite -- NetSuite still smells like Ellison.

    While the article in two places seemed to indicate they'd tackle $5k deals -- NetSuite sales told me (in kind enough words) to take a hike unless I have $60,000 to spend in year 1.

    Paid Ad? Maybe Nelson meant it's $5,000/hr to get him on the phone.

    This is less a critique of NetSuite and moreso the article's spin-factor.
