Case Study: McGladrey saves $600,000 and reduces software license-management time by 98% with Adobe Acrobat (Adobe)

McGladrey - Customer Case Study

McGladrey, the fifth-largest accounting firm in the U.S. with 8,000 professionals in 90 cities, faced rising regulatory demands and a patchwork of PDF tools that drove IT complexity, security gaps, and costly manual license tracking—consuming over 100 hours annually and causing deployment and interoperability issues with critical tax software.

By standardizing on Adobe Acrobat through the Adobe Acrobat Enterprise Program and adding it to the firm’s standard desktop image, McGladrey deployed Acrobat to 8,000 systems, streamlined updates and downloads, and improved interoperability. The firm saved $600,000 over four years, cut software management time by 98% (to about two hours per year), and increased productivity and secure, paperless collaboration.
