Comparex Mainstream adds ProClarity to solution stable

Johannesburg, 23 Jul 2002

Comparex Africa Mainstream has added the ProClarity business intelligence (BI) suite to its stable of offerings through its appointment as reseller by Harvey Jones Systems, the principal distributor of ProClarity solutions in SA.

ProClarity, the fastest growing BI tool in the world, will add significant value to Comparex Africa Mainstream`s existing customer base.

"Due to the increasing demand and momentum in SA`s business intelligence market, ProClarity felt it was important to establish a local presence to better support its clients," says Clive van Rooyen, principal business developer at Comparex Africa Mainstream. "We will be offering ProClarity to an existing base of 25 clients, and believe it will add enormous value to their ERP systems."

ProClarity has empowered Global 3000 organisations to build business efficiency and effectiveness by providing tailored, Internet-enabled and analytic applications. The company delivers analytic application platform software and services through a global sales and support network located throughout the US, Asia and Europe.

The ProClarity Analytic platform is a component-based approach to building BI applications using Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services as the online analytical processing (OLAP) database. It offers thin-client, Web, rich, and desktop clients with a Web-based, multi-tier component object model (COM) architecture. The software developer`s kit (SDK) includes all ProClarity Enterprise Server components and controls required by developers to customise client-side and server-side components.

ProClarity Enterprise Server allows unrestricted customisation and varying user requirements to be scaled across businesses. It enables centrally controlled delivery of powerful analytics to all business users inside and outside of an organisation, from analysts to information consumers. The platform itself promotes collaboration and workflow. Also, it improves the process of sharing data understanding, which ultimately increases collaboration. This amounts to an end-to-end decision-making system with output from analysis being captured as briefing books for ongoing decision-making.

"This platform can meet specific business needs and quickly adapt to evolving markets," says Van Rooyen. "Also, because ProClarity can sit on top of any financial system, customers will be able to get easy access to critical information in any format of choice, identify problem areas beforehand and analyse the data."
