    Bob Scotts VAR 100 - 2016. Since this is all self-reported the validity of most is only as good as those doing the reporting. According to the 2016 report the largest Sage centric partners are: - Net@Work (#11) - $40.8 million - ADSS Global (#19) - $29.75 - SWK (#21) - $28 million - Blytheco (#23) - $ 27 million Self-reporting is really problematic and really except for SWK I do not think any of these companies are public so verifying their $$ is all but impossible. This report appears like it must include some other revenues in the total: Clifton Larson Allen (I believe a CPA firm) shows $ 25 million revenue with only Intacct as a product?? There's no way to tell for sure but $25 million is probably the majority of Intacct's total revenues. I believe Clifton Larson Allen sold their Sage practice in Nov 2015 to Net@Work. I'm skeptical this is all Intacct related or even Sage related.

    The first 4 paragraphs of this are very telling on current industry trends. Worth a read for that alone.

    I love the ""for whatever the factors many firms in the top 100 showed strong revenue growth registering increases that have not been seen for some time"" - Doesn't this get said every year (seems like I read it each year) - No kidding, the biggest channel trend is consolidation - squeezing more partners into one operating entity = growing revenue - When they aren't consolidating they're buying each other or other product lines from firms that are exiting part of the business Sage for many years grew like crazy as they bought everyone under the son. Then when they tried to integrate it and grow just based on what they owned they hit the rough patches.
