New identity reflects expanded vision to help CIOs “See Clearly. Spend Better.” Brightfin today announced that, following its merger with Proven Optics, the combined company will operate under a single brand: Brightfin.

Visibility alone isn’t enough. Teams need to be able to act, tied to real financial outcomes. See Clearly.
