ValuSource started in San Diego in 1986 developing business valuation products for CPAs and other financial professionals.

After becoming the leader in business valuation software, John Wiley & Sons acquired ValuSource in 1994.  In 2004 ValuSource was bought back from John Wiley & Sons.

ValuSource has worked closely with Microsoft to develop state-of-the-art products built around Microsoft Office.  This gives ValuSource clients the best of both worlds: A comprehensive stand-alone

application that incorporates everything needed to perform business valuations, as well as the power and flexibility to customize formats, formulas, and documents in Excel and Word.

ValuSource’s most important partnership is with National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts (NACVA). NACVA is the largest business valuation association in the world. Founded in 1991, NACVA now has over 7,000 members and exclusively resells ValuSource software and supports ValuSource through its conferences, catalogs, and sales teams.
