Our Clients' Thoughts On Schneider Downs

"Schneider Downs takes the time to understand the client and their needs. My first project with the team in 2014 was the beginning of a partnership that still exists today. The firm has and continues to be involved in various co-sourcing and consulting engagements due to the depth of knowledge of the firm and more importantly, the results."

"The personnel are fantastic. Efficient, creative and always on top ify the clients needs."

"My experience with Schneider Downs has consistently been excellent. For the past 18 months, while experiencing the many facets of COVID, the Schneider Downs team has been exceptional. The frequent consultations, CFO forums, sharing of best practices, etc. has provided excellent benefits in a unique and unpredictable environment. More than providing necessary services, they are a terrific resource for our institution.
"

"We've had a very good experience with SD&Co over the years and appreciate the strong leadership from the partners and managers on our account. They understand our business and the issues we face each year and provide reasonable alternatives."

"This was the first year the team at SD worked with us, but I thought they did a great job. Very responsive and kept the lines of communications open with any questions/concerns."

"We have a solid relationship with our team"

"We are very satisfied with the relationship. One-off project and/or consultancy work sometimes feels a bit overpriced which is the reason for the "sometimes" answer to one of the questions."

"We've worked with Schneider Downs for over a decade and they have become a part of our growth and success. To us, Schneider Downs is not just a financial services firm but a trusted business partner."

"Quality of service and consistency of our audit and tax team, Staci, Shane and Elena are outstanding"

"I believe SD brings quality talent to our projects and they are well worth the price we pay!"
