SilverSun Subsidary, SWK Technologies, Distinguished as 2012 Top 100 VAR by Bob Scott's Insights and Accounting Today

LIVINGSTON, NJ--(Marketwire - Jul 16, 2012) - SilverSun Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: SSNT) (OTCQB: SSNT), a preferred source for best-of-breed mid-market software applications and expert professional consulting services, today announced that SWK Technologies, Inc., the Company's principal operating subsidiary, has been named as one of the 2012 Top 100 VARs by both Bob Scott's Insights and Accounting Today magazine, ranking #34 and #35 on the lists, respectively.

Bob Scott's Insights is an industry e-newsletter which is noted for its annual ranking list of mid-market enterprise financial management resellers. Publisher Bob Scott has been informing and entertaining the mid-market financial software community with his email newsletters for ten years; and he has been covering this market through print publications for 18 years, first as technology editor of Accounting Today and then as the Editor of Accounting Technology from 1997 through 2009.

Scott states, "It seems probable that growth in the top tier of resellers will spur competitors to work to gain scale. And the (Hightower) deal has SWK posed to move up in the Sage channel for 2012. SWK had jumped to $10.5 million in revenue for 2011, compared to $7.5 million for 2010 as it benefitted from sales of X3 software, the highest-priced ERP package in the Sage lineup. SWK stands to add another $3 million from the Hightower assets if it can hang on to those customers. If it can achieve the same revenue level for each of the quarters as it did in the last quarter of 2011, the company could approach $15 million for 2012."
