(Net)Suite (for) BlackBerry

The big news this week down NetSuite, Inc. way was the on-demand business management software providers’ announcement that flagship product NetSuite is available wirelessly on mobile devices including BlackBerry, Windows Mobile and Palm Treo.

NetSuite credited third-party application developers Antenna Software, Explore Mobile and iEnterprises for extending NetSuite via NetSuite’s SuiteFlex development and integration platform.

SuiteFlex is designed to enable the extension of NetSuite to third-party systems, the creation of third-party vertical applications within NetSuite, and the customization of end-to-end business processes for end-users.

Antenna Software’s AMPower for NetSuite mobile solution provides the ability to access and update essential customer and order information in real-time from the NetSuite system from “a variety of” wireless handheld devices.

Explore Mobile’s Explore Order Entry allows sales reps to retrieve, update and take orders via their mobile device and have them uploaded into NetSuite with that ever-magical “click of a button.” Said COO and partner of Explore Mobile Jeremy DeSpain, “Our solution originated as a proof-of-concept to the extensible product capabilities SuiteFlex was going to open up for third-party development.”

iEnterprises’ Mobile Edge for NetSuite is a pre-built application that allows BlackBerry and Windows Mobile users to connect and extend NetSuite CRM and ERP capabilities to their handheld while away from the office.
