ProClarity Expands Analytic Access to Business Information through Collaboration with Digital Aspects; Comprehensive Analysis of ERP Applications Now Available with Cubics

Business Wire, Nov 18, 2004

BOISE, Idaho -- ProClarity Corporation, a leading provider of analytic application technology for the enterprise, today announced a collaborative partnership with Digital Aspects that enables connectivity to several common enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications. In conjunction with ProClarity(R), Digital Aspects, an independent software developer based in West London, UK, has developed Cubics(R), a real-time analytic middleware product designed to provide dynamic access to SAP(R), JD Edwards(R) and PeopleSoft(R) for the ProClarity Analytics Platform.

"Businesses often need to analyze what is happening in their organization in a real-time fashion," said Gordon Roxon, CEO for Digital Aspects. "Unfortunately, the data in traditional ERP systems is complex and difficult to analyze. Cubics gives organizations access to up-to-date information from their ERP systems, which can then be analyzed using the ProClarity Analytics Platform."

Cubics delivers the ability to "slice and dice" live transaction-level data in both the ProClarity Analytics Server and Live Server, and makes it possible to get real-time summary information about business operations without the difficulties associated with traditional OLAP server products.

Version 6 of the ProClarity Analytics Platform is designed to enhance IT productivity and performance, while providing organizations with a comprehensive understanding of corporate operations. An integral component of ProClarity 6, Live Server provides both read and write-back capabilities to data sources from the familiar Excel environment promoting effective and collaborative team planning.

"Certain business decisions require the instantaneous understanding of current business operations," said Raino Zoller, ProClarity business development manager. "ProClarity, in partnership with Digital Aspects, is able to give organizations real-time access to their ERP data, and allows them to fully analyze this information and identify opportunities for operational improvements and cost savings."
