Microsoft Adds A Little ProClarity

"Microsoft agreed to acquire business intelligence software specialist ProClarity Corp., a move that will increase the analysis and visualization technologies in its BI platform and pending Office 2007 suite.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
On paper at least, the move appears to be a natural fit for Microsoft. Since 1999, Boise, Idaho-based ProClarity has been a Microsoft partner in the BI space, where customers use information to make better business decisions and get better results.
ProClarity makes an 'analytics server,' which works with the following applications in Microsoft's BI platform: Office Business Scorecard Manager, Office Excel and SharePoint Portal Server. More than 1,200 customers currently use ProClarity software with Microsoft's BI platform. "
