NetSuite's new UK office is located on the Oracle campus in Reading, Berkshire (www.netsuite.com/uk). The company's award-winning products include the Oracle Small Business Suite and NetSuite for medium-sized businesses. With more than 7,000 customers in the US, Europe and Asia, NetSuite is the leading provider of integrated online CRM/ERP application software for small and medium-sized businesses. The Oracle Small Business Suite name is used under licence from Oracle Corporation (Nasdaq: ORCL).

NetSuite has substantially grown its EMEA customer base as well. These customers are from a wide range of industries, including distribution, manufacturing, professional services, and retail. These include: Miglia Technology (www.miglia.com), based in Tring, Herts; Oyuna Cashmere (www.oyunacashmere.com) in London; and Justoffbase.com (www.justoffbase.com/classified), based in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk.

In addition, NetSuite UK has gained channel partners in the on-demand space.

They include companies such as SpringBoard 4 Business, JNA Associates, International Business Strategies and BlackApple.

"Our growth in Europe has exceeded our expectations -- and adding Dean Mansfield will only help to accelerate our momentum," said Zach Nelson, CEO of NetSuite.

Mr. Mansfield started his career as Director of OEM Sales for Connor Peripherals Inc. and then as Legal Council and Vice President Corporate Development for O.R. Technology Inc.

About NetSuite

NetSuite, Inc. was founded in 1998 by Oracle CEO and chairman Larry Ellison and his leading technology guru and current NetSuite CTO Evan Goldberg to bring the power of integrated application suites and low-cost utility computing to SMEs.
