Cast Iron Systems: Sales Cheat Sheet for
Objection Handling
Objection Why can’t I custom code the integration
between NetSuite and the applications I have?
Response Cast Iron’s Integration Platform is the
only complete solution (see “Capabilities” table at
left). Custom code does not deliver the quality,
reusability and scalability for application
integration. It is typically a people-intensive, one-off
effort that is performed to meet a specific business
need in a tight deadline. For example, Cast Iron’s
proven low cost platform has enabled thousands of
customer application integrations thus liberating
the IT staff to focus on more strategic projects.
Objection Why Cast Iron over Fusion, Boomi,
Informatica, and Pervasive for integration to
NetSuite?
Response On Demand Services, including Boomi
and others, don’t provide multiple deployment
models, real-time process integration, and
enterprise/midmarket connectivity, among many
other capabilities (see “Capabilities” table at left).
On Premise Tools, including Fusion, Pervasive,
Informatica, and others, don’t provide multiple
deployment models, real-time process integration,
and user-interface (UI) mashups, among many
other capabilities (see “Capabilities” table at left).
Objection What is the cost of using Cast Iron?
Response Cast Iron’s complete, proven, and
trusted approach to NetSuite integration allow
customers to reap dramatic results. Customer
feedback indicates that Cast Iron delivers up to
50% time and cost reduction via total connectivity
and up to 80% time and cost reduction via
complete reusability.
