NETSUITE INKS CPA FIRM FOR IMPLEMENTATIONS

SaaS vendor NetSuite has signed CPA firm Hein & Associates, a Denver-based CPA firm, to perform implementations for NetSuite's end users. I'll repeat the question I asked Michael Kulisch, NetSuite's director of business development about this deal. Does this cut into the resellers' opportunities?
He said that resellers are more sales oriented, although I would swear that services and consulting are a part of their business. In any event, Hein is providing services in the area of regulatory compliance, an area most VARs wouldn't be involved with. But services for IT readiness and efforts in Hein's verticals, technology, manufacturing, distribution and energy? It seems likely this is not the last such deal we'll see. Kulisch said no new partners are in the pipeline, but the kinds of services requested by end users favor CPA firms as the most likely, but not only third party that may be retained. It was interesting that a publication named NetSuite CEO Zach Nelson as one of its channel maverick and said that he had created a loyal reseller base. That's an interesting view.
