With award-winning NetSuite implementation experts.

Why companies move

Why organizations move from Infor to NetSuite

Infor provides deep industry-specific capability, particularly in complex manufacturing environments. Businesses often consider NetSuite when they want a more unified cloud architecture, simpler integration, more consistent user experience, and stronger cross-functional visibility.

01

Eliminate integration complexity

Reduce dependence on middleware, module-specific connections, and synchronization between separate systems by moving toward a more unified ERP architecture.

02

Gain real-time visibility across departments

Connect finance, inventory, customers, projects, orders, and operations so teams can work from a more consistent business view.

03

Reduce IT maintenance requirements

Simplify support by reducing the number of platform components, integration layers, and product-specific technical dependencies that need ongoing management.

04

Create a more consistent user experience

Use more uniform navigation, dashboards, mobile access, and role-based workflows across business functions instead of varying experiences by component.

05

Simplify future changes and integrations

Use a common data model, APIs, workflows, and platform tools to reduce the effort required when new systems, processes, or business requirements are introduced.

06

Modernize the business systems landscape

Replace fragmented or heavily customized architecture with a cloud ERP designed to support broader finance and operational needs from one platform.

Infor migration signals

When does moving from Infor to NetSuite make sense?

The choice depends on whether your priority is deep industry-specific manufacturing functionality or a more unified ERP architecture across finance, customer operations, projects, reporting, security, and integrations.

Balance manufacturing depth against integration simplicity

Infor can remain a strong choice for highly specialized manufacturing environments. NetSuite becomes more compelling when the business values unified finance, inventory, customers, projects, ecommerce, reporting, and security more than niche production depth.

01

Are middleware and module integrations becoming difficult to maintain?

Complex synchronization and component-specific interfaces can increase support effort and make future changes slower.

02

Do users experience different interfaces and workflows across Infor components?

A more consistent platform can reduce training overhead and make cross-functional adoption easier.

03

Do professional services teams need stronger project, resource, time, expense, and billing integration?

NetSuite's broader PSA model can provide a more integrated finance-to-project workflow for service organizations.

04

Do ecommerce, CRM, and finance need to work more closely together?

A unified platform can reduce reconciliation between customer, order, inventory, and financial processes.

05

Would one security and access model simplify governance?

Centralized roles, field-level controls, audit history, SSO, and authentication can simplify administration across business functions.

06

Are you relying less on highly specialized manufacturing functionality than before?

Infor may remain the better fit when deep vertical manufacturing features are the dominant requirement, but broader integration needs can shift the balance toward NetSuite.

Infor vs NetSuite

Infor vs NetSuite: industry depth versus a unified cloud suite

Infor is known for industry-specific solutions and deep manufacturing capability. NetSuite is designed as a broader integrated cloud ERP covering finance, inventory, CRM, ecommerce, projects, reporting, security, and operational workflows on one platform.

Simplify the architecture

Use one cloud platform to reduce middleware, reconciliation, and cross-system friction

NetSuite's value is strongest when the organization wants finance, inventory, customer management, projects, reporting, integrations, and governance to work through a common platform rather than a collection of specialized components.

01

Unified data and reporting

Reduce cross-system reconciliation by connecting operational and financial data in a shared ERP model.

02

Simpler integration management

Use a common API and platform framework to reduce dependence on middleware and product-specific interfaces.

03

Consistent governance

Standardize roles, authentication, permissions, audit history, and business controls across more of the organization.

Infor migration roadmap

A structured Infor to NetSuite migration

A successful transition should protect the industry-specific processes that matter while simplifying the architecture, integrations, data model, security, and reporting around them.

STEP 01

Assess the Infor landscape

Document Infor products, manufacturing processes, modules, integrations, middleware, reports, users, security, customizations, and technical dependencies.

STEP 02

Confirm the functional fit

Identify which specialized Infor capabilities must be preserved and where NetSuite can replace or simplify finance, inventory, CRM, projects, reporting, and commerce workflows.

STEP 03

Design the target architecture

Define subsidiaries, financial structure, roles, inventory, projects, customer processes, dashboards, integrations, and security within NetSuite.

STEP 04

Map data and integrations

Clean and transform source records while redesigning middleware-heavy or module-specific connections into a clearer future-state integration model.

STEP 05

Validate business-critical scenarios

Reconcile financial data and test manufacturing, inventory, projects, customer workflows, reports, permissions, and integrations with real users.

STEP 06

Cut over and stabilize

Execute final migration, monitor integrations and high-risk processes, support user adoption, and optimize the new environment after launch.

Industry fit

When NetSuite is the stronger fit - and when Infor may still be the better choice

Infor remains valuable where deep vertical manufacturing functionality is central. NetSuite can be more attractive where broader integration, professional services, ecommerce, finance, reporting, and unified business management are the priority.

01

Light & mid-market manufacturing

Use integrated finance, inventory, demand, customers, and manufacturing capabilities where deep specialized shop-floor functionality is not the primary requirement.

02

Professional services

Connect resource management, project accounting, time, expenses, billing, and financial reporting on one platform.

03

Wholesale distribution

Unify inventory, purchasing, fulfillment, customers, orders, and finance with fewer cross-system dependencies.

04

Retail & ecommerce

Link commerce, CRM, inventory, orders, and financials instead of building a complex integration layer between systems.

05

Multi-entity organizations

Centralize subsidiaries, reporting, roles, security, and financial governance in a common cloud ERP model.

06

Highly specialized manufacturing

Infor may remain appropriate where deep production functionality, vertical-specific requirements, and existing customizations deliver more value than platform consolidation.

Migration partner

Move from Infor only after separating true industry requirements from architectural complexity

The migration should preserve the processes that create competitive value while removing unnecessary middleware, fragmented interfaces, duplicated reporting, and legacy technical dependencies.

Aarvexa migration approach

Assess the Infor footprint -> validate NetSuite functional fit -> design the target model -> simplify integrations -> migrate and reconcile data -> test critical operations -> cut over with support.

01

Manufacturing fit assessment

Identify specialized production, MRP, BOM, quality, and shop-floor requirements before selecting the target functionality.

02

Integration rationalization

Map middleware and external systems, then redesign only the connections required in the future-state architecture.

03

User-experience simplification

Standardize roles, dashboards, workflows, and mobile access around a more consistent operating experience.

04

Security and governance design

Translate access controls, authentication, compliance, and audit requirements into a unified NetSuite security model.

05

Financial and operational reconciliation

Validate balances, inventory, projects, customers, orders, and reporting across repeated migration cycles.

06

Controlled transition

Prepare users, integrations, and business-critical workflows for cutover while protecting operational continuity.
