Hello, is there someone here who can help me with some direction, advice, comments regarding integration methods into Netsuite? We are currently working with a company that is doing the implementation of the system, but I would like a second opinion on their choice for integration between our legacy system and Netsuite. Thanks in advance.

Ask away in this thread. Many people on here that can give their opinions

Nice write up of the integration options available here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-integrate-anything-netsuite-olivier-gagnon

What is your legacy system and is it on-premise or cloud based?

Thank you, our legacy system is written with Power Builder and the data base is Sybase, also on premise. Our integrators have recommended building a Restlet to receive the data. Additionally to this, we would set up a Windows machine and write code using C# to receive data from legacy system and send to Netsuite every so often. They spoke of CPU Usage, threads, to be able to manage load and speed. It all seemed immensely complicated to integrate a few thousand lines of inventory and invoice everyday. Does this make sense? Who can help with a second opinion, maybe have someone else look at solution to make sure it is ok. Thanks in advance!

Generally speaking restlets are a solid integration option, and with all integration options you have to be cognizant of NetSuite concurrency limitations. If you are looking for paid advice, you can try posting something in #C29J6STC6

To be honest, that all sounds fair to me on the face of it and integrations like this can get complicated. I've done quite a few (.Net\C#\MVC\RESTlets) when there is a crazy amount of logic involved. If you have the proposed solution documented, send it over and ill give it a once over for you. QQ, do you still have development work done on your legacy system? You have anyone in-house who does it? Only reason why I ask is that it could be possible to hit the RESTlet direct from the legacy system.

It'd be worth pinging @Kurtis Meloche at ExtendApps Inc. A large part of their solutions focus on integration.
