NetSuite Next
For nearly 30 years, NetSuite has helped organizations manage finance, operations, sales, customer service, inventory, projects, and industry-specific processes in one system. That experience is reflected throughout an extensible suite including the workflows, business logic, controls, metrics, roles, permissions, and best practices that support both long-term strategic planning and day-to-day operations. Current users can try NetSuite Next in a dedicated preview account, and opt switch to NetSuite Next without disruption to existing data, customizations, and workflows.
Ask Oracle
Ask Oracle enables users to interact with NetSuite through natural language by answering questions, analyzing business data, surfacing insights, giving guidance, and helping users make better decisions and take action in the context of their work. Customers can familiarize themselves with Ask Oracle within their existing NetSuite environment, then extend that experience with NetSuite Next, where Ask Oracle becomes more capable because it is deeply embedded throughout the user experience and provides the foundation for richer AI-powered capabilities. A future blog post will feature this functionality in more detail.
New AI and Automation Capabilities
NetSuite release 2026.2 also introduces new AI and automation capabilities to help customers further optimize financial operations, gain deeper insight into financial results and operating costs, and improve workflows in key industries. Future blog posts will focus on these new features designed to help teams find answers faster, reduce manual effort, and act with more confidence from within the system they already use to run their business.
