McGladrey Moves Up to No. 2 on Accounting Today’s 2014 VAR 100

CHICAGO - July 16, 2014 - PRLog -- McGladrey LLP, the nation's largest provider of assurance, tax and consulting services focused on the middle market, was recently ranked No. 2 on Accounting Today's annual listing of the Top 100 Value-Added Resellers (VARs). Previously, the firm was ranked No. 4. The Accounting Today's annual report ranks the biggest resellers of accounting software by revenue – and also looks into their strategies for success, and why the "VAR" moniker may soon be a thing of the past.

Accounting Today's "VAR 100: Are you experienced?" says that, "Overall, this year's most successful resellers not only reported exponential revenue growth but surging staff numbers – a significant feat in a market hurting for experienced talent. As in past years, a few big acquisitions propelled already substantial resellers higher on this year's VAR 100, though the 2014 crop of top companies also showed signs of significant organic growth."

"Even in a market with a shortage on experienced workers, McGladrey has been able to increase our staff substantially," said Brian Becker, national leader – technology and management consulting services for McGladrey (http://www.mcgladrey.com/). "We understand the needs of our clients, particularly those in the middle market, and can provide advisory, delivery and other support services to help them succeed. McGladrey's integrated approach to serving our clients is a differentiator within the marketplace, and shows we're much more than a service provider to our clients; we're trusted advisors."
