| It is the #1-selling
easy-to-use database that helps you easily manage people,
projects, assets, and more. It gives you the tools you
need to manage, customize, and share your information
on a network or over the web with Windows and/or Mac
users. FileMaker has matured into a very powerful and
sophisticated tool for developing database solutions
while still maintaining a rapid development cycle that
is much shorter than other comparable database programs.
It was originally developed as a personal database
application for the Macintosh computer and has since
moved tremendously into the Windows market. In an
effort to build upon FileMaker’s reputation for user
friendliness, FileMaker Pro (now its latest version
10) has been purposely redesigned to give you streamlined
navigation, better workflow and timesaving shortcuts.
Now managing your information is simpler and more
straightforward than ever before.
FileMaker Pro also offers the ability to create a
single solution that can be accessed from multiple
platforms such as Windows XP, Mac OSX, Palm OS, Pocket
PC, and the web. In addition it can serve FileMaker
files to both Windows and Mac clients concurrently
from Server or Pro running on either platform. It
offers support for up to 250 simultaneous clients
and provides convenient features like online backup.
With its built-in Web server and out-of-the-box business
templates, FileMaker has received high praise for
being the ideal application for beginning Web site
administrators who want to quickly (literally with
one click) add Web database publishing capabilities
to their Web site or company intranet.
