NORCROSS, Ga., Oct. 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. magazine has ranked Advocate – the Cloud & Connectivity Insiders 4,945 in the annual Inc. 5000 awards. This is the eighth consecutive ranking for Advocate, a global IT consulting and managed services firm that helps companies optimize and transform their cloud and connectivity infrastructure.

The Inc. 5000 list represents the most comprehensive look at a critical segment of the economy—America's independent entrepreneurs. Advocate - along with firms such as New Penn Financial, Heartland Business Systems, Coupons.com and WDS – are among prominent companies featured on this year's list.

Scott Fogle, CEO and Co-Founder of Advocate, commented, "We are thrilled with this latest milestone in Advocate's growth, but this advancement couldn't have been possible without the outstanding team of dedicated "Insiders" that we have attracted over the years. We consider ourselves very fortunate to work with such a talented group of industry experts and look forward to future expansion."

He continued, "Tim and I are also very appreciative to Inc.com for conducting such a ranking that gauges the success of America's Entrepreneur spirit and we have learned many valuable lessons from association with them and fellow Inc. 5000 award recipients."

In his Editor's Letter in the September issue of Inc., the magazine's Editor-In-Chief, Eric Schurenberg, describes this year's award recipients. "The surprising bit...is the sheer variety of the paths our entrepreneurs take to success. The kinds of companies that break out evolve with the economy...but what doesn't change is the fearsome creativity unleashed by American entrepreneurship."
