VALENCIA, Calif., May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Nexus, a leading national solutions provider of advanced technologies and network integration, has been recognized by Everything Channel as one of North America's top technology integrators. Named to the prestigious VAR 500 list, Nexus placed number 194 in the 16th annual ranking; an improvement from last year's ranking of number 226.

The 16th annual ranking VAR 500 list details the leading producers among technology integrators and technology solution provider organizations in North America based on gross worldwide revenue of hardware and software sales, as well as earnings from professional and managed IT services. This year's list reflects the strength of the technology reseller channel as the ranking includes 182 new companies with four percent of the new entrants landing in the Top 100.

"In contrast to the overall market, 2009 was our best performing year," said Deron Pearson, President of Nexus. "We finished with record revenues, a record opportunity pipeline, record profitability, and record employment levels; while further expanding our national footprint and core business solutions. Our growth has been 100% organic and speaks to the incredible talent and commitment of our team, as-well-as the predictability and scalability of our business model. We have not strayed from our long-term business plan which operates on a platform of aggressive investment in our valued customers, associates, and vendor partners."

"The VAR 500 is the who's who of the solution provider community. Microsoft, HP, Cisco, Symantec among others are highly reliant on the VAR 500 to sell their products to businesses, and collectively this audience generated more than $500B in sales in 2009. Even more importantly they solve customers' biggest IT business problems through product integration, training, consulting and services. In companies large and small, the VAR 500 are considered integration experts, trusted business advisors and invaluable partners. We are honored to compile this list and represent this audience," said Kelley Damore, VP, Editorial Director, Everything Channel.
