ExtendInsights Data Management | Know what our product is all about

Updated over 3 months ago

The ExtendInsights for Data Management NetSuite has been continuously helping users create and update records by bypassing the NetSuite UI and eliminating CSV uploads. ExtenInsights makes it a breeze to manage NetSuite data in Excel saving you time and resources. With the in-cell error notification feature, you can fix and resend the data to NetSuite, right away!

Our goal is to continuously improve your ExtendInsights experience! šŸš€

Making bulk data management fun and fast

There are many bulk data management tools that work with popular cloud services. The majority of them support Microsoft Excel in some form. But, all of them only do two things at the most: bring data into Excel and push that data back to the cloud. Everything in between is left to the user to work out on their own. This is where ExtendInsights Excel is different: Not only does it make data import and export a breeze, it makes working with the data in Excel a treat.

One example is our Auto-Complete feature.

Our customers love the fact that they donā€™t need to remember or lookup IDs from their cloud service when they need to set values in a reference (aka picklist) field. All they need to remember is part of the name that they are trying to reference. Type that into the cell in Excel and tab out. ExtendInsights Excel will find the right value from among all the possible values and fill it in. If thereā€™s no match, the user receives a visual warning in the cell. The feature is backed by some complex caching and disambiguation logic to ensure minimal disruption to the userā€™s workflow.

Other key features provided by the product include:

  • Extensive ongoing support for NetSuite record types

  • Asynchronous, ā€œburst modeā€ uploads for non-blocking, mass updates that allow for updates to happen in the background, even if Excel is closed.

  • Strict adherence to NetSuiteā€™s native security and permissions model

  • Ad-hoc search and filtering of NetSuite data, right from the Excel application

  • Real-time validation and feedback on success, errors, or warnings

Perhaps the productā€™s most profound validation came from Evan Goldberg, Founder, and CTO of NetSuite who posted this on the NetSuite User Forum:

ā€œExtendInsights for Data Management NetSuite (formerly,CloudExtend Excel for NetSuite) is a great product, I encourage everyone to have it available for at least some of their users.ā€
