Macdonald has been a leader in the channel for more than 20 years. Under his leadership, Intacct's channel program has thrived – adding more than 100 new partners in the past year and delivering more than one-third of new bookings in 2012. With 22 of the Top 100 CPA firms, 21 of the Top 100 VARs in the industry, 20 "VAR Stars," and five firms on Accounting Today's list of Technology Pacesetters, Intacct boasts the strongest channel program of any cloud financial vendor.

Intacct's channel partners continue to benefit from Intacct's partner-friendly business model and have seen outstanding results from adding the company's cloud financial management and accounting applications to their portfolios. During the 2012 fiscal year, Intacct's business partners combined to close more than three times as many new customer deals as during the year prior.

"I am honored to be named to this prestigious list for the second straight year," said Taylor Macdonald. "This is strong validation of the hard work put in by the entire Intacct channels team and our world-class partners. We've built a channel program that creates mutually beneficial relationships with partners, delivering a strong sales channel for Intacct and a path to increased success and recurring revenue for our partners.
