Again, companies are trying to add some business-oriented functionalities to the iPhone. Next in line is NetSuite, a vendor of on-demand ERP and CRM solutions for small and medium sized businesses, which just launched SuitePhone – an easy to use web-based tool that simplifies business operations.
Using SuitePhone, back-office users can use their iPhone to remotely access their financial functionality such as invoicing, accounts receivable, and payroll. On the other hand, CRM users can enter leads, file expense reports, view contacts, and even place quotes and orders. E-commerce operations can also be readily managed through the iPhone and NetSuite’s role-based dashboards provide a “bird’s eye view of a business in real-time.”
Best of all, SuitePhone is available at no additional charge in NetSuite’s new NetSuite 2007.0 release, which is currently rolling out to existing customers. New customers will have to wait for August of this year though…

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
