Frequently asked questions
Is Ardovo a real alternative to NetSuite?
Yes. Ardovo covers the core CRM and revenue workflow NetSuite is used for, and adds an AI operator (Rook) that executes multi-step work rather than just answering questions. Most teams are productive in minutes instead of months.
How is Ardovo's pricing different from NetSuite?
Ardovo is one clean price across every module, with no per-cloud add-ons or premium AI tiers. NetSuite pricing tends to climb as you add seats, contacts, and clouds.
Can I migrate my data from NetSuite to Ardovo?
Yes. Ardovo imports accounts, contacts, deals, and activity, and Rook can help set up your pipeline and views from a single sentence. See the Ardovo library for a full migration guide.
Does Ardovo have the depth NetSuite has?
Ardovo ships a deep deal object (line items, buying committee, competitors), visual automation, forecasting, quotes, and projects out of the box, so most teams find the depth they need without add-ons.
