Standard NetSuite functionality isn't enough for your business.
NetSuite out-of-the-box doesn't fit
Standard NetSuite functionality misses critical workflows for your business. You're forcing processes into a system that wasn't designed for them.
ISV with a product but no NetSuite expertise
You have a successful SaaS product and customers are asking for NetSuite integration. Building a SuiteApp requires specialized knowledge you don't have in-house.
Custom SuiteScripts from a previous partner broke
Your NetSuite account has customizations that stopped working after a platform update. Undocumented code, deprecated APIs, and no one to fix it.
Need to distribute a solution across multiple NetSuite accounts
You've built something valuable for one NetSuite account and want to package it as a SuiteApp for others. You need a development partner who understands distribution.
You could force your processes into NetSuite's constraints, or build a SuiteApp that makes NetSuite work the way you need it to.

The value of working with SuiteApp specialists
Full SuiteScript 2.1 expertise
We build SuiteApps using modern SuiteScript 2.1 patterns — user events, scheduled scripts, map/reduce, RESTlets, and Suitelets. No deprecated SuiteScript 1.0 code.
NetSuite SDP compliance
We understand the SuiteApp Development Program requirements. Our code follows Oracle's coding standards, security guidelines, and best practices for SuiteCertification.
ISV partnership experience
We've helped ISVs build and launch SuiteApps to the NetSuite SuiteApp Marketplace. From concept to distribution, we know what it takes to get approved.
Survives NetSuite updates
Our SuiteApps are built to survive NetSuite's biannual updates. We document dependencies, avoid deprecated APIs, and test against new releases before they go live.
Performance-tested at scale
We test SuiteApps with real data volumes. Records catalog queries, large dataset processing, governance limits — we design for production, not demo accounts.
Direct developer access
Work directly with senior NetSuite developers. No account managers, no junior resources. The people building your SuiteApp are on every call.
We build SuiteApps that extend NetSuite without breaking it.

Real examples of custom SuiteApps that extend NetSuite functionality. From AI-powered tools to workflow automations, each case study shows how we solve complex NetSuite challenges with custom development.
How we build SuiteApps
A proven methodology from discovery to deployment. Total timeline: 6-16 weeks depending on complexity.
Discovery & requirements
We review your NetSuite account, understand the business problem, and document what the SuiteApp needs to accomplish. Duration: 1 week.
Architecture & design
We design the SuiteApp architecture: records, scripts, APIs, security model, and distribution approach. You approve the technical blueprint before we build. Duration: 1-2 weeks.
Development & testing
We build the SuiteApp in a development account: SuiteScripts, custom records, RESTlets, UI extensions. Rigorous testing for governance limits, edge cases, and NetSuite updates. Duration: 4-12 weeks.
Deployment & documentation
We deploy to your production account, provide comprehensive documentation (setup guides, API docs, troubleshooting), and train your team. Duration: 1-2 weeks.
Launch & ongoing support
For ISVs: marketplace submission and SDP compliance support. For all clients: post-launch support, bug fixes, NetSuite update compatibility testing, and feature enhancements. Duration: Ongoing.
SuiteApp development pricing
SuiteApp development pricing depends on scope, complexity, and integration requirements. We provide detailed estimates after discovery.
Factors that affect cost:
- Number of custom records and objects
- SuiteScript complexity and volume
- RESTlet and Suitelet API requirements
- Integration count and complexity
- ISV marketplace and certification needs
What's included:
- Discovery and architecture design
- SuiteScript 2.1 development
- Custom objects and workflows
- Testing and documentation
- Deployment to production
- Post-launch support (30 days)

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a NetSuite SuiteApp?
A SuiteApp is a packaged software extension built specifically for NetSuite. Unlike one-off customizations, SuiteApps are distributable, installable packages that add new functionality to NetSuite. They can include custom records, scripts, workflows, and integrations. SuiteApps are ideal for businesses that need consistent customizations across multiple accounts or ISVs who want to distribute their NetSuite integration through the SuiteApp Marketplace.
How long does SuiteApp development take?
6-16 weeks depending on complexity. Simple SuiteApps with basic customizations and a few scripts can be complete in 6 weeks. Complex projects with multiple custom records, extensive SuiteScript logic, REST APIs, and external integrations typically take 12-16 weeks. ISV projects requiring SDP compliance and marketplace approval may add 4-8 weeks for certification. The timeline also depends on your availability for feedback and testing.
Should we build a SuiteApp or just custom scripts?
Build a SuiteApp if you need to distribute the same functionality across multiple NetSuite accounts, if you're an ISV planning to sell on the SuiteApp Marketplace, or if you want a packaged, maintainable solution. Custom scripts are sufficient for one-off automations in a single account. If you might expand to multiple subsidiaries, accounts, or clients later, a SuiteApp is the better investment.
Do you help with NetSuite SDP and SuiteCertification?
Yes. We understand the SuiteApp Development Program (SDP) requirements and build SuiteApps that align with SuiteCertification criteria. This includes proper security practices, documentation standards, governance limit compliance, and Oracle's coding guidelines. We can prepare your SuiteApp for marketplace submission and help navigate the certification process. Note that Oracle's certification review and approval is handled separately.
What happens to our SuiteApp when NetSuite updates?
We build SuiteApps to survive NetSuite's biannual platform updates. This means avoiding deprecated APIs, using supported SuiteScript 2.1 methods, documenting dependencies, and testing against preview releases. Before your account is updated, we test your SuiteApp in a preview environment to catch issues proactively. We also offer ongoing support retainer plans that include update compatibility testing and fixes.
Can you migrate or fix an existing SuiteApp?
Yes. We rescue and modernize SuiteApps built by other vendors. Common scenarios include migrating SuiteScript 1.0 to 2.1, fixing broken customizations after NetSuite updates, refactoring undocumented code, optimizing performance issues, and adding missing features. We audit the existing SuiteApp, document what it does, identify problems, and create a roadmap to bring it up to current NetSuite standards.
What if our SuiteApp hits NetSuite governance limits?
We design SuiteApps with governance limits in mind from day one. This means efficient query design, proper use of map/reduce for bulk operations, script optimization, and avoiding anti-patterns that consume governance unnecessarily. If your SuiteApp is hitting limits, we can profile the code, identify bottlenecks, and refactor to reduce governance consumption. In some cases, we might restructure the architecture to use asynchronous processing or batch operations.
