COMPLETE SAGE SUMMIT COVERAGE AND ANALYSIS:

“Militant” isn’t a word you’d find used very much for CPAs. But John Shaver, president of Aries Technology, a Sage accounting software reseller in Knoxville, Tenn., qualifies.

And if Sage software succeeds in it’s audacious leap to the cloud, brand consolidation and subscription pricing, it will need a few more people like Shaver. On his Twitter profile, Shaver calls himself “President of Aries Technology Group, Enemy of the Billable Hour, Supreme Advocate of ROWE, Leading ERP Projects out of the Dark Ages.”

In this interview at the annual Sage reseller and partner conference, Shaver explains just how radically the professions of accounting and consulting must change.
