My company is going to be implementing a NetSuite ERP Solution in the next couple of months and I was wondering if anyone had experience with the NetSuite Financial Planning module that can be integrated into the ERP solution. I have traditionally used
NetSuite Financial Planning Module
Answers
I think that the FP module is provided by Adaptive Planning, I would check with your colleagues leading the selection project or the NetSuite sales rep. If that is the case, take a look at the Adaptive Planning website for more details. AP is a planning and reporting tool, so you can build various models, using actual GL data or budgets/estimates. It's pretty popular in the mid market.
Adaptive Planning is integrated, but I cannot confirm that it is being bundled with NS. AP is very solid for both CPM and reporting generally (although Netsuite reporting is plenty capable). Worked recently with an implementation partner for AP that is more knowledgeable of this integration. Let me know if you would like to connect with them.
Like the previous comments, I think adaptive planning is bundled with NS. There may be integration APIs to go from one to another. From what I hear, AP has a great reputation.
We use both NetSuite and Adaptive Planning and we LOVE Adaptive. It is a separate module that sits outside of NetSuite and you can push actuals into Adaptive from NetSuite. Adaptive is very easy to use, has great reporting functionality and their support is great.
Host Analytics has many customers that run Netsuite for ERP and Host Analytics for Budgeting, Planning & Forecasting, as well as, financial consolidations and reporting.
See these customer case studies:

Host Analytics offers a special integration (Host Analytics Connector Pack) to NetSuite

That enables customers to go live in with their data in 1-3 days. The big difference is that Host Analytic brings over ERP data into their application on an automated and secure basis so users don't have to
Hope this helps!
