| Software licensing the connector / iPaaS subscription | Platform edition, endpoints, flows, environments; usage entitlements (tasks, messages, vCores). | Endpoint and flow count, real-time frequency on usage-priced tools, premium connectors, extra sandboxes. | Fewer objects in scope, scheduled batches instead of per-record tasks, one org and one subsidiary. | Boomi PAYG $99/mo + $0.05/message (published); connector-class apps $200–$1,000/mo per connection (Folio3); Celigo entry ~$600–$1,500/mo (Broken Rubik / Integrate.io, 2026). |

| Platform side-licensing capacity on Salesforce and NetSuite themselves | NetSuite service tier and concurrency; Salesforce API allocation; integration-user licenses. | High-volume or high-concurrency syncs — each NetSuite SuiteCloud Plus license adds 10 concurrency slots, per Oracle's integration-governance documentation. | Batching and scheduling that stay inside the base concurrency pool; Salesforce API allocations that grow with edition and licenses. | NetSuite concurrency = service-tier base + 10 per SuiteCloud Plus license (Oracle docs). SuiteCloud Plus pricing itself: via NetSuite sales — not published. |

| Implementation one-time build | Discovery, field mapping, flow configuration or custom build, dedup and error design, sandbox testing, cutover. | Object count, custom fields, bi-directional flows, multi-subsidiary and multi-currency NetSuite, CPQ/billing scope, dirty data. | Clean data, decided master-data ownership, standard objects only, a phased first scope. | Moderately complex single integration $5,000–$30,000 (Houseblend); Celigo implementations $25k–$75k (Stacksync, 2025); mid-market programs $75k–$150k and enterprise $200k–$400k with 8–14 month payback (Stockton10, 2025 — single source). |
|---|
| Consulting rates the multiplier on the build | Who does the work, at what rate, for how many weeks. | Specialist roles: SuiteScript developers $175–$275/hr, solution architects $225–$300/hr (Houseblend / KORE1, 2026). | Independents at $75–$175/hr (KORE1, 2026); admin-configurable tooling that needs fewer specialist hours. | Most US engagements $85–$250/hr (Houseblend / KORE1, 2026); a 2025 snapshot put it at $150–$275/hr (Stockton10); Celigo work via certified partners $150–$250/hr (Dominate.co). |

| Ongoing run cost monthly, for the life of the sync | Monitoring, error queues and retries, change requests, sandbox-refresh fixes, support or managed services. | Volume growth on usage-priced tools, frequent field and process changes, error handling that was never designed — so failures surface late. | Error handling and alerting built during implementation; a managed-support retainer that converts surprise rework into a planned line. | Stockton10 (2025) reports unplanned post-go-live issues costing "2–3 months of rework and unexpected consulting fees" — the benchmark for what skipping this line costs. |
