One of the region’s fastest-growing IT companies has been named to a short list of the best Microsoft partners in the United States.
Interlink Cloud Advisors, headquartered in Mason, on Monday was named by Redmond Channel Partner magazine to the RCP 350, a national list of the top 350 Microsoft, one of three firms from Greater Cincinnati to make the cut.
Microsoft has one of the largest, most complex and most varied partner communities in the world, Redmond said, and the magazine independently compiles the RCP 350 out of a field of thousands. Companies in the RCP 350 range from huge partners with broad Microsoft tech capabilities and thousands of consultants to boutique firms with specialized expertise.
The list, which includes more than 100,000 partners in the U.S., brings welcomed recognition, Interlink Cloud Advisors co-founder and president Matt Scherocman said. He credited the nod to the company’s 37 employees.
“They are wicked smart and truly care about the success of our clients and each other,” Scherocman said in a release. “We have been working hard and growing fast. We are dedicated to consistently being one of the best Microsoft partners out there.”
Besides Interlink Cloud Advisors, Greater Cincinnati’s Martin and Associates, which offers accounting, ERP and CRM solutions, and Intellipoint Technologies, based in Loveland, which specializes financial accounting software solutions like Microsoft Dynamics GP, also made the RCP 350.
Interlink Cloud Advisors, founded in 2011, provides support and solutions around Microsoft-based technologies for mid-sized firms. The company maintains a presence in greater Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan and Tennessee.
The company is a two-time “Fast 55” honoree, a Courier list that recognizes the area’s fastest-growing companies, with $7.9 million in revenue in 2019. Interlink Cloud Advisors has also placed on the Inc. 5000 for the past two years, including a No. 194 ranking on the Midwest 2021 list released this March.
With 44% year-over-year growth, Interlink is set to increase its headcount by 100% in the next three years, Scherocman said. It received a six-year, nearly 1.56% job creation tax credit in February to add 16 new jobs from the Ohio Tax Credit Authority.
