Testimonial

I was initially skeptical about the value of bringing in a banker, but Russ and his team added tremendous value from Day 1 and have earned my respect and highest recommendation. AGC inherited a complex situation, boiled it down to a very consumable story and ran a highly efficient and effective process. Ultimately they found the best buyer in Providence Equity, and drove a premium valuation for Untangle. There is nobody I would rather have in my corner than Russ and AGC. I would absolutely welcome the opportunity to work with them again.

Bob Walters, CEO, Untangle
