Challenge
As Cybereason grew at such a fast pace, they quickly came to understand that they needed a proper PO process in place. With seven subsidiaries, Cybereason aimed to implement a singular global unified process that would be more aligned, structured, and easier to manage.
Established in 2013 and headquartered in Boston, Cybereason is growing fast. With seven offices around the world and new hires every month, they are experiencing significant growth at more than 800 employees strong.
We wanted a global, unified process that could remain flexible and overcome the challenges that come from having different subsidiaries and locations

Cybereason’s main procurement challenges were:
1. Struggling to manage multiple subsidiaries
With multiple global subsidiaries, Cybereason needed a way to consolidate their purchasing processes and deploy an easier-to-navigate solution. They needed a tool that their hundreds of users around the world could manage.
2. Having difficulty gaining and maintaining full control over sensitive data
With so many offices and moving parts, Cybereason needed a way to ensure department heads could gain control over the data that was being shared, updated, and plugged into NetSuite. A more unified and structured process would ensure greater visibility across subsidiaries and the ability to make proactive alterations where needed.
3. Aligning their customization requirements with NetSuite ERP
Cybereason’s challenges culminated in the need for a user-friendly interface and easy adoption in their offices around the world.

Cybereason Tips and Recommendations for a Quick Onboarding:
Involve relevant stakeholders in the process as much as possible.
Bringing the right team members on board from the beginning will help the process move faster, keep relevant stakeholders informed along the way, and support a more collaborative environment.
Define your internal processes before kickoff to ensure a smooth deployment.
Be ready to outline requirements and openly work with a team to set up new parameters and procedures. We at Cybereason came prepared with detailed approval flows, a commitment to deadlines, and closely followed Tipalti’s guidelines.
Don’t give up on implementing a new platform when your company is used to another process.
Realize that you’re undertaking a process that is worth a little effort in the beginning, as it will set your team up for unlimited success and opportunity in the future.
