Dell today announced it has acquired Clerity Solutions, a
leading global provider of applications modernization and re-hosting solutions
and services. Clerity’s capabilities will enable Dell Services to help customers reduce the cost of
transitioning business-critical applications and data from legacy computing
systems and onto more modern architectures, including the cloud.
Dell has taken significant steps over the past three years to expand its services capabilities to help customers manage the increasing complexity of IT, including the ability to support growing volumes of data, streamline processes and ease the transition to cloud-based solutions.
Clerity’s unique re-hosting solution makes it easier for customers to move applications off legacy computing architectures into the new IT environment of their choice. By automating this approach to IT modernization through its UniKix™ offering, Clerity helps customers minimize the need to retest systems and retrain IT personnel—which results in overall cost and time savings.
Clerity was founded in 1994 and is headquartered in Chicago, Ill. Dell welcomes Clerity’s approximately 70 employees to the Dell Services team, and plans to make continued investments to grow the applications modernization capabilities of its Services business. Additional terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
