NetSuite extends its RenewForce program

RenewForce, originally launched in October 2008, is a sales incentive program aimed at salesforce.com customers.

The program will stay in place till the end of March 2009, giving salesforce.com customers now up for renewal the opportunity to move to the NetSuite business management system.

The NetSuite RenewForce Program offers all salesforce.com customers the opportunity to drop their standalone sales force automation (SFA) offering from salesforce.com in exchange for NetSuite CRM+ at a cost NetSuite guarantees will be 50 percent off the value of their current salesforce.com implementation, including service and support.

The 50 percent discount will apply to a comparable licence for NetSuite CRM+, including customer support and implementation services.

"RenewForce ends the age of being forced to pay up to A$200 per-user-per-month for basic contact management and SFA," said Johnny Jones, NetSuite vice president of international sales.

"In this environment, reducing costs and increasing productivity are key, and applications like NetSuite CRM+ that include—but go well beyond—basic SFA functionally enable companies to do a lot more with a lot less."
