Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- Aktion announced a July 2026 headquarters relocation and AI-driven Client Innovation Center.
- May 2026 recognition as a VAR Star and CRN MSP 500 builds seller credibility.
- February 2026 and November 2025 acquisitions expanded Canadian Acumatica scale and customer cross-sell.

What makes Aktion Associates unique
- Aktion became No. 15 on Accounting Today’s 2026 VAR 100, up from No. 16 in 2025.
- Aktion supports 8,500-plus customers across North America with Deltek, Acumatica, Sage, Infor, and MSP services.
