Case Study: Elgato Systems achieves real-time global visibility and accelerated growth with Oracle NetSuite

Elgato Picks NetSuite Over SAP to Integrate US, German Operations, Ensure Market Supremacy

Elgato, a Munich‑based high‑tech maker of smart lifestyle and entertainment devices (about $40M revenue and 60 employees), faced fragmented operations: its US business ran NetSuite since 2002 while the German headquarters relied on a legacy ERP, forcing manual Excel reconciliations and denying leadership a real‑time global view. The company evaluated SAP Business ByDesign but chose NetSuite for its fit and partner support.

Elgato implemented NetSuite OneWorld in 2014 with implementation partner Alta Via, achieving seamless integration between US and German operations and a simple, unified interface for drilling into consolidated and subsidiary data in real time. The solution proved scalable with SuiteApps and partner support, coinciding with Elgato’s strongest growth year and giving the company confidence to continue expanding and innovating.
