DWA Adopts NetSuite OneWorld For Real-Time Global Financial Management
-- Leading Media Agency Replaces Six Instances of Sage Line 50 and Numerous Excel Spreadsheets
LONDON, Nov. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NETSUITE SUITECONNECT-- NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP and omnichannel commerce software suites, today announced that DWA, the global leader in media planning and communications strategy for technology companies, has replaced six instances of Sage Line 50 with one single instance of NetSuite OneWorld to manage mission-critical financial processes from order to cash, financial consolidation, multi-currency (including USD, AUD, Singapore Dollar, British Pound, and Euro), country-specific taxation compliances to real-time analytics and reporting across seven countries including the U.S., U.K., Germany, Australia, Singapore, China and India. As a result of the NetSuite OneWorld deployment, DWA is able to:
- Streamline its financial operations;
- Gain the agility, flexibility and scalability required to fuel its global growth with real-time visibility into KPIs across its multiple operations in multiple countries.
- Reduce manual work and channel resources into further growing its business in the highly competitive technology advertising and marketing industry.
Sage 50 Terminates Here
NetSuite OneWorld replaced six on-premise instances of Sage 50 software used in the U.K., Germany, Australia, Singapore, China and India, as well as QuickBooks in the U.S. Without integration across those systems, DWA lacked real-time visibility into financials on a global and per-subsidiary basis and struggled with delays, time-consuming manual work and discrepancies in data. DWA selected NetSuite over FinancialForce, Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision) and Sage 200.
