NetSuite
NetSuite Inc. is an American cloud based enterprise software company. They provide products and services tailored towards small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), including accounting, financial management, customer relationship management (CRM), inventory management, human capital management, payroll, procurement, project management, and e-commerce software. NetSuite was founded in 1998, and is currently headquartered in Austin, Texas. The company is seen as the first cloud computing software company, pre-dating Salesforce by roughly a month. Oracle acquired NetSuite for approximately $9.3 billion USD in November 2016. The Oracle NetSuite Global Business Unit is managed by Executive Vice President, Evan Goldberg.
The company began in 1998, with a five minute phone call between Evan Goldberg and Larry Ellison where they discussed the idea of selling software over the internet, leading Evan Goldberg to found NetLedger. NetLedger offered web-hosted accounting software. The company was seeded with start-up money from Ellison who was Oracle's CEO, and it employed numerous staff previously employed at Oracle including the chairman, CTO, and other management who transitioned from Oracle to NetLedger. At one time, NetLedger was licensed to Oracle, branded as the Oracle Small Business Suite; however, that experience was short-lived, and the licensing deal was cancelled in 2004.
In July 2002, Zach Nelson was appointed CEO. In September 2003, the company officially changed its name from NetLedger to NetSuite, Inc. to reflect the company expanding its offerings to a suite of business applications beyond accounting.
On January 4, 2007, NetSuite named Oakland A's General Manager Billy Beane (of Moneyball fame) to its Board of Directors. NetSuite became a publicly traded company after its initial public offering (IPO) of 6.2 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange in December 2007. It traded under the single-letter ticker symbol "N". On July 28, 2016, Oracle announced it had offered to purchase NetSuite for $9.3 billion. The deal closed in November. Up until the Oracle acquisition, Goldberg was the chief technology officer and chairman of the company.[citation needed]
NetSuite celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2023.
NetSuite headquarters are located in Austin, Texas.[citation needed] NetSuite has additional offices in Colorado, California, Illinois, New York, and abroad.[citation needed]
In 1998, Evan Goldberg received approximately $125 million in initial financial backing from Larry Ellison, founder and CEO of Oracle through his venture capital entity Tako Ventures. Other initial investors were StarVest Partners, ADP, and UBS PaineWebber. The NetSuite software also relies on Oracle Database software.
Ellison and family members owned approximately 47.4% of NetSuite's common stock as of December 31, 2014. The firm's 10-Q filing on March 2, 2015, stated that "Mr. Ellison is able to exercise control over approval of significant corporate transactions, including a change of control or liquidation."
