Growing together in NetSuite is one of the foundational ideas behind OdeCloud’s online community of freelance NetSuite experts.

As an individual consultant, it can be exceptionally difficult to reliably and rapidly improve our craft. At it’s core, freelancing can often be a rather lonely way to work.

Knowing this, we at OdeCloud set out to create a platform that would allow NetSuite freelancers from all walks of life to directly assist each other on projects and easily exchange high-level knowledge.

And that’s exactly the reason why freelance NetSuite consultant Minh Bao Le thought it was an absolute no-brainer to join the OdeCloud community.

“I’ve always wanted to be part of something that that was growing together — not something that you know, you had one leader at the top where they just profit off everyone at the bottom, they’re all working for that person, etc.

“I’ve always wanted to be part of something that allows people to help each other out, that allows people to grow together.

And since NetSuite touches my work, it was kind of the perfect opportunity for me to help out others or others to help me out, and also be part of something that links everybody together.”

With the OdeCloud community, the days of working alone as lone wolf freelancers are long gone! Embracing the power of crowdsourcing, we take the expertise of one consultant and multiply is tenfold.

And it’s because of freelancers like Minh that we continue to focus on building up the OdeCloud community, hoping to revolutionize the way we think about work.

It’s because of freelancers like Minh that we remain motivated in our endeavor to create the best freelancer community in the world.

NetSuite freelancers that join OdeCloud‘s community of experts are in for a treat in 2023.

Spending a good chunk of our resources to help build our NetSuite freelancer community from the ground up in 2019, we’re incredibly happy to be where we are now with OdeSocial and our revolutionary freelancing platform, and we’re excited for everything we have planned.

Now, part of building an awesome community is finding community leaders, and one of the community members that has really stood out to us is freelance NetSuite expert and entrepreneur, Louis-Philippe Baillargeon.

Last time we spoke to LP, he had just come back from a trip to Belize, where he experienced diving with sharks for the first time.

This time around, we discussed his experience with OdeCloud and how its helped benefit his work as a NetSuite freelancer.

“I think (my experience with OdeCloud) has been more than great so far. Everyone in OdeCloud and all the channels we communicate through are very experienced, very professional, but at the same time, very friendly, which are qualities that I think we look for in colleagues — and in friends, as well,” LP said.

“I’m establishing a lot of good relationships with people that I’m working with on the same customers they’re working with, and just on the platform, helping each other out — just a great community.”

The last four NetSuite freelancers I’ve spoken to — Thierry Klesse, Howard Szeto, Ryan Longenecker and Louis-Philippe Balliargeon — have continued to play a significant part in our community.

Whether they’re welcoming newcomers into the community, answering NetSuite inquiries or asking questions of their own, we know we can always count on them to actively engage other community members.

So if you’re one of the many NetSuite freelancers looking to expand their network — or simply an independent worker looking to re-establish the sense of workplace camaraderie — then we encourage you to reach out to us to see whether OdeCloud is the right fit for YOU!

We’re always on the lookout for active members who enjoy sharing their knowledge and are willing to take the extra step in helping lead the charge. We hope you consider this opportunity to help build the greatest community of NetSuite freelancers…ever.

NetSuite freelancers tend to work independently, so where exactly do they turn to when they need help?

Of course, NetSuite does offer their own online support center, and there are also NetSuite-related forums such as SuiteAnswers that contain a number of helpful articles.

But it can be an absolute pain sifting through endless waves of long-form content, looking for a fast and easy answer. Sometimes, you might not even understand what you’re searching for.

And that pretty much leads us to the reason why NetSuite freelancer Nirosh Ramachandran opted to join OdeCloud’s online community of NetSuite experts in the first place: the OdeCloud community is the simplest solution to finding a simple answer for all your NetSuite-related problems.

“One of the hardest things about being a consultant — whether it’s working alone or working in a company — is just like, knowledge transfer and learning answers, learning about the software, learning solutions. It’s incredibly hard sometimes to figure out ideas, figure out solutions to a problem.

“So when Osar reached out to me, told me that, ‘Hey, you know we have this community that’s happening where we have a kind of knowledge transfer happening — a huge knowledge base with consultants where we share ideas, help each other provide solutions. I thought that was a really, really great idea.

“It kind of addresses one of the biggest challenges in our industry, just kinda where do we go when we need help, right? Sometimes, SuiteAnswers can only do so much.”

Nirosh explained that while he has his own personal network of  NetSuite consultants, he prefers not to bug them too much, especially if they are busy with other projects.

Additionally, Nirosh was excited about the opportunity to beta test the OdePlatform, which is being designed to help NetSuite freelancers like him get the most out of their client projects.

“Just having a collaborative community where you can kinda go get help from other people, help other folks, learn the software a bit more, transfer knowledge — thought it was a bit of a no brainer to kinda join that.”
