TierCommerce vs NetSuite SuiteCommerce

The SuiteCommerce alternative for Australian and New Zealand wholesalers on NetSuite

SuiteCommerce is Oracle NetSuite’s own ecommerce add-on, so it works when you run NetSuite and your web store shares NetSuite’s data. TierCommerce also runs on NetSuite, through a native, two-way and live integration, and connects just as natively to MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options, Business Central and others. Here’s how they compare for wholesalers in Australia and New Zealand.

The short answer

Choose TierCommerce if you run NetSuite and want a B2B store with buyer sub-users, multi-level approvals, GST per customer, PunchOut and AI order entry, from an Australian team, and the freedom to keep your store if you change ERP later. Choose NetSuite SuiteCommerce if you plan to stay on NetSuite long term and want your web store inside NetSuite itself, with full source-code control through SuiteCommerce Advanced.

Why wholesalers choose TierCommerce over NetSuite SuiteCommerce

  • Runs on NetSuite, without tying you to it

    TierCommerce’s NetSuite integration is native, two-way and live, with every sync logged and replayable. We also build and maintain native integrations for MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options, Business Central and more, so if you change ERP later, your B2B store can stay.

  • Accounts that run themselves

    Head users add and manage their own sub-users, including accounts-payable users who pay invoices and statements online. Multi-level approvals, flexible payment terms and PunchOut round-trip with cXML and OCI are part of the platform.

  • AI co-workers for order entry and more

    The Order Entry co-worker turns emailed and PDF purchase orders into NetSuite sales orders. Quoting, Buyer Assistant, Sales Copilot, Accounts and Catalogue co-workers handle the rest, and your buyers’ own AI agents can place orders through our MCP server.

  • An Australian team, with your data in Sydney

    Our team is in Australia and customer data is hosted in Sydney. Our onboarding programme takes you live in about 30 days, and an implementation partner is on hand for custom work.

When NetSuite SuiteCommerce might suit you better

NetSuite SuiteCommerce is a good product. It can be the better choice if:

  • You’re committed to NetSuite for the long term and want your web store to work from the same records as your orders, inventory and CRM, with no separate integration.
  • You want deep, code-level control of the storefront, which SuiteCommerce Advanced offers through access to its source code.
  • You only need a self-service account portal for invoices, payments, quotes and reorders, which SuiteCommerce MyAccount provides without a full shopping cart.

TierCommerce vs NetSuite SuiteCommerce questions

Is TierCommerce a good NetSuite SuiteCommerce alternative for B2B?

Yes, if you run NetSuite and want a B2B store with buyer sub-users, multi-level approvals, GST per customer, PunchOut and AI order entry, set up by an Australian team. TierCommerce connects to NetSuite natively and live, and also to MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options and others, so your store isn’t tied to one ERP.

Can I move from NetSuite SuiteCommerce to TierCommerce?

Yes. You keep NetSuite as your ERP. We connect TierCommerce to it, your items, pricing and customers come across live, and our onboarding programme takes you live in about 30 days.

How does TierCommerce pricing compare with SuiteCommerce?

TierCommerce’s Essentials plan starts from A$500 a month and Professional from A$1,500, excluding GST, priced on the trade accounts that actually order online. Enterprise is quoted for your business. NetSuite doesn’t publish SuiteCommerce prices. Its Australian site says customers pay an annual NetSuite licence made up of the core platform, optional modules and users, plus a one-time implementation fee, with ecommerce sold as an add-on module.

Do I need NetSuite to use SuiteCommerce?

Yes. SuiteCommerce is sold as an add-on module to NetSuite, and its web store is unified with NetSuite’s order, inventory, ERP and CRM records. TierCommerce works with NetSuite too, and with MYOB, Pronto Xi, Options, Business Central, Xero, Cin7, Unleashed and Katana MRP.

What happens to my TierCommerce store if we move off NetSuite?

Your B2B store stays in TierCommerce. We connect your new ERP through one of our native integrations, then map and test your data before you switch over.

Can TierCommerce show GST inclusive or exclusive prices?

Yes. You choose whether each customer sees prices with GST included or excluded, so trade accounts and retail buyers each see the format they expect.
