Ron Drost

Hi, I’m Ron. I previously owned Best Practice Solutions, the team behind products like ATO Paper Buster, iPad Signatures, and ASIC Paper Buster. In November 2013, Best Practice Solutions was acquired by CCH. My passion for building smart software for the accounting industry goes way back — all the way to developing systems like Solution 6 in the 1990s.
