The Problem

Expectation vs. Reality Gap with NetSuite:

Competitor Landscape

  • NetSuite's own sandbox - limited and not pre-purchase
  • Implementation consultants - biased toward selling services
  • Generic process mining tools - not NetSuite specific
  • POC environments - time-consuming and limited scope

Must-Have Features for MVP

Business process import and simulation
Gap analysis between requirements and capabilities
Real performance metrics based on data volumes
Customization requirement generator
Total cost of ownership calculator

⚠️ Potential Challenges

  • Building comprehensive NetSuite knowledge base
  • Maintaining accuracy as NetSuite updates
  • Potential pushback from NetSuite partners

Risk Level: Minimal

🎯 Keys to Success

  • Accurate predictions validated by implementations
  • Database of real implementation outcomes
  • Quick simulation setup (under 1 week)
  • Strong word-of-mouth from saved implementations
