You already own the licence.
Stop paying $499 for ODBC.
SuiteAnalytics Connect costs $499/month for ODBC access. Acterys connects directly via SuiteQL - included in every NetSuite license.
SuiteAnalytics Connect sells you access to your own ledger. The REST API was included the whole time.
What you run instead of the driver
SuiteAnalytics Connect is an ODBC driver plus the licence that permits it. The query below reaches the same data over REST web services, which every NetSuite subscription already includes.
Same data, different door
SuiteQL reads the transaction and entity tables the driver exposed. The reporting layer above it does not know the difference.
Nothing to install
No driver per workstation, no ODBC DSN estate, and no version to chase after a NetSuite release.
Incremental by default
The driver made you write the freshness logic. The sync tracks last-modified itself.
The licence stops renewing
That is the whole $5,988, not a discount on it.
FROM transaction
WHERE lastmodifieddate >= '2026-08-27 06:00'
-- only rows changed since the last run
The query the connector issues for an incremental pull, over REST web services, with no ODBC driver anywhere in the path.

Teams That Made the Switch
"We cancelled SuiteAnalytics Connect within a month. The SuiteQL approach is faster, more reliable, and our CFO loves the dashboards."
Director of FP&A
$200M Manufacturing
"The incremental sync is a game-changer. Reports refresh in seconds instead of the 30-minute ODBC timeouts we used to deal with."
BI Team Lead
$500M Retail
"Setup took 10 minutes - not an exaggeration. We went from CSV exports to live Power BI dashboards in an afternoon."

No. We recommend running both connectors in parallel during week 1. Acterys syncs via SuiteQL independently from ODBC, so your existing setup continues working while you validate. Once you confirm data parity, simply cancel SuiteAnalytics Connect.
