NetSuite OneWorldNetSuite OneWorld is software for global businesses. It encompasses modules for accounting/Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), ecommerce and professional services automation. NetSuite launched OneWorld in 2008 to target midsized companies that are multinational or have multiple subsidiaries. It allows companies to run multiple companies or subsidiaries off of one system. The software runs in the cloud via a Software as a Service (SaaS) model, meaning NetSuite runs and maintains the computing infrastructure and delivers it over the Internet. Users access the software via a Web browser and pay a monthly subscription price. OneWorld supports more than 170 currencies, 15 languages, and country-specific accounting standards in North America, Europe and Asia. A foreign currency revaluation engine lets businesses monitor exchange rate fluctuations continuously. In 2012, NetSuite offered OneWorld as a Two Tier ERP option for companies running Oracle software. NetSuite argues that the two-tier approach can cut deployment time and costs instead of installing on-premise ERP in divisions.

NetSuite SuiteCommerceSuiteCommerce is NetSuite’s software package for retailers, integrating ecommerce websites with in-store sales and back office accounting tools.

NetSuite acquired Retail Anywhere, one of its partners, in January 2013 to provide a Point of Sale (POS) system to complement SuiteCommerce. Integrating Retail Anywhere with NetSuite's cloud computing platform gives businesses a full view of each customer across all retail channels, while providing inventory and financial information.
