Headquartered in Boca Raton, FL, Eclipsys Corporation (ECLP) develops and licenses proprietary software for the healthcare industry. The end users of the software include clinicians, physicians, nurses, and administrative support and ancillary staff of healthcare organizations. The company also provides professional services such as implementation, integration, product, training, and maintenance support, outsourcing, remote hosting applications, network services, and consulting services to its customers. The company exited the network services business in the third quarter 2007. Initially, Eclipsys adopted an inorganic growth strategy, by acquiring nine companies during 1997 - 1999. The newest version of the Sunrise family of products, Sunrise XA, is based on proprietary architecture that is built on Microsoft's .NET Framework, Microsoft SQL Server, and the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems. Eclipsys generates revenue through the licensing of its software and delivery of services (systems and services revenue) and selling hardware. In 2006, systems and services revenue and hardware contributed 96% and 4%, respectively to total revenue.
