Anderson Frank NetSuite Salary Survey 2017
Introduction It gives me great pleasure to introduce the first ever edition of Anderson Frank’s NetSuite Market Trends and Salary Survey. This extensive body of research was launched to provide an analysis into salaries, benefits, bonuses, trends, sentiments and motivations across the NetSuite community. Unique data published in this report incorporates survey results collected between February and March 2017, and NetSuite placements made by Anderson Frank and salary information from jobs registered by Anderson Frank customers between November 2016 and March 2017. These results were unveiled in Las Vegas at SuiteWorld 2017. I would personally like to thank all of you who took the time to participate in our survey. We are always interested in hearing from you and welcome feedback on how to improve and make our study more useful. We hope you enjoy the read and more importantly, find it useful, whether you are hiring or looking for a new position.

Testimonials “We were able to accomplish major customizations that would have otherwise taken large amounts of time to learn on our own.” Anderson Frank was recommended to me by a colleague. When I engaged with Anderson Frank, their experience and references made choosing them an easy decision. My experience working with them was excellent. When a business need was identified, my account team could find me resources within hours, and get an initial scoping call set up. All of the candidates were quickly scheduled for an introductory call, and followed up immediately with suggestions on how to address our project needs. All candidates were very well rounded and had a very good understanding of all aspects of NetSuite and also responsive to our changing objectives during the engagements. We were able to accomplish major customizations that would have otherwise taken large amounts of time to learn on our own. We were not able to hire a full time NetSuite consultant, so the on-demand model worked very well for us.
Jeff Smith
SVP of Operation & Strategy Golden Star Technology
“Anderson Frank consultants are specialized by region which guaranteed that we would have access to a strong pool of local candidates.” As an organization whose entire business is run on NetSuite, we were attracted to Anderson Frank’s deep pool of NetSuite professionals across a variety of functions. We’ve worked with AJ at Anderson Frank on several searches. For each search, AJ provided a consistent flow of qualified candidates suited specifically to our hiring needs. As the searches progressed, AJ’s communication and coordination skills ensured the process went smoothly for our company and for the candidates. She and her team were consistently available via email and telephone. It’s obvious that Anderson Frank is connected to anyone who’s anyone in the NetSuite community. Our company is all in on NetSuite, so having access to a strong pool of relevant talent is critical to our success. Without Anderson Frank, hiring for our NetSuite-related needs would have been much more difficult and expensive.

“Anderson Frank consistently demonstrates high levels of quality expertise - both technical and common business sense.” We were at the stage in our NetSuite/OpenAir implementation when it became extremely apparent to us that we needed help and needed it fast. While we had not yet worked directly with the Anderson Frank team, through our research and networking it became apparent to us that Anderson Frank was a firm with the capabilities to source and connect us with a highquality expert on a quick basis. They did not disappoint! Beyond quickly sourcing a highly qualified expert to help with our needs, the follow-up and service from our Anderson Frank account lead has been excellent. The “behind the scenes” administrative processes are also seamless and efficient. Our consultant was sourced very quickly and several options were initially presented, each with their own specific strengths and capabilities. Our consultant consistently demonstrates high levels of quality expertise - both technical and common business sense. The support of the resource provided by Anderson Frank has been incredibly valuable as we push through the post Go-Live period during which transactional and process disruption remains before setting back to a new norm.
