SWK Partner Program
As an SWK partner, you will not only be rewarded but you have several ways of engaging with us. You can be engaged throughout the entire sales and implementation process, making sure you are the face of the solution to your customer.
SWK Partner Program
Great relationships take time to form because they are based on trust, competence and mutually-beneficial experiences. SWK prides itself on the many partnerships and alliances we have formed over the years and we look forward to strengthening our existing partnerships while forming new relationships.
Boost Your Sales as a Valued Sage Partner
Ultimately, we all want to generate and close more deals. That’s why SWK sees immense value in partnering. We believe all partners should be well rewarded for bringing in business, and we want to promote mutually-beneficial relationships that last well into the future.
As an SWK partner, you will not only be rewarded but you have several ways of engaging with us. You can be engaged throughout the entire sales and implementation process, making sure you are the face of the solution to your customer. If it is a robust solution that you do not have experience with, we will walk you through the process and serve as a mentor or coach to you and/or your staff. As an alternative, SWK can simply provide you with a referral fee for opportunities you bring to us that close.
Join the Sage Partner Cloud
Technology is increasingly moving to the cloud, but migration from on-premise systems and infrastructure isn’t always a simple journey. SWK Partners gain access to white label private cloud hosting for Sage solutions, including Sage 50, Sage 100, Sage 300 and Sage HRMS. Armed with enterprise-level cybersecurity, SWK’s secure application hosting solution allows you to provide security, peace of mind and seamless digital transformation for your clients while continuing to support their existing systems.
SWK’s Partner-Customer Relationship Policy
At SWK, we understand the hard work it takes to engage and maintain a customer. Our policy, and inherent ethic, is not to engage your customer in discussions about opportunities without your permission and/or collaboration. We do this with the understanding that within a channel/partner/reseller- customer matrix there are a myriad of ways to generate new business, but none merit the consequence of alienating you, our partner. We have absolute respect for your existing relationships with your customer. We will gladly provide references that reflect our honestly and integrity in partner relationships.
Here are some details on our current partner programs.
Partner Success Program (PSP)

SWK ERP ALLIANCE
Partnering on ERP opportunities is the best way to bring multiple perspectives and best of breed solutions that solve a myriad of customer business challenges. Truly, the possibilities for partnering are limitless. The SWK ERP Alliance serves as a foundation for various levels of partnering and streamlines the engagement model.
The ERP Alliance program allows partners who are not authorized—or who do not have the resources to market, sell or support particular products—the ability to leverage SWK and add these offerings to their portfolios. For example, our ERP Alliances withoutSage X3 (formerly Sage Enterprise Management) capabilities may have customers and prospects that could benefit from all of the features and functionality that Sage X3 (formerly Sage Enterprise Management) offers (more on this below). Through the SWK ERP Alliance, we can align with and capitalize on sales opportunities that would have, in the past, been lost to other competitors.
The engagement can be at the partner level, in the form of a mentor-protégé or coaching program, as a VAR or reseller, or as a referral partner.
