Software of Excellence acquires Oasis

Software of Excellence International (SOEI) announced last week that it has acquired Australian dental software vendor, Oasis Software Pty Ltd .
In the SOEI media release, Chief Executive, Brian Weatherly, said "the acquisition fits perfectly with the company’s new strategy, which is to concentrate exclusively on the development of its Professional business".
“The combined Oasis and SOEI business will have 1400 clients or a 35% share of the Australian Professional market, compared with an estimated 850 or 21% held by the next biggest competitor”, Mr Weatherly said.
SOEI also announced recently that it is progressively withdrawing from its Enterprise business, which involves selling software to dental schools, teaching hospitals, public health providers and other larger clients.
