Don窶冲 do it. Poorly constructed, for anotber era.

What do you dislike?

Sometimes a bit slow to support the latest OS upgrades.

What do you like best?

The easy way to make tailor made solutions that suits our needs.

What do you dislike?

It takes a little time to familiarize oneself with the more idiosyncratic behaviors of the product which is important so as not to unintentionally delete information, but this is not strong criticism since once one does become familiar, it is easy to see how the logic of the system is quite rational.

I love that the product is so customizable. It is easy to set up your database according to your organizations' needs and there is a lot of room for creativity.

What do you dislike?

It can be a bit buggy and crash randomly with large files.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Have IT at the ready, it's so customizable but you'll need an IT whiz to fully take advantage of its potential.

What do you dislike?

Easy to make mistakes, need training, not overly intuitive. To master the program is difficult. Because each item is not able to be deleted, one must be very careful not to make mistakes while using, or make frequent copies.

What do you like best?

Can do a lot of things, the opportunities for this program seem endless. I use this for badge printing and event conference software, but my husband uses it for scientific data entry and database use. Its use can be so varied. It can sort and assess data in really interesting ways, create endlessly unique fields, and can find commonalties among data that is wonderfully useful.

Recommendations to others considering the product

It is a challenging system to use, but once you figure it out, it can be incredibly useful and a great way to manipulate data.

What do you dislike?

FileMaker is made up on a lot of layers so it is specifically designed with your business in mind. With all of the coding, if there's a simple issue that needs addressing, we need to use a company that specializes in FileMaker to correct the issue or implement a new idea we have. It can get costly since we cannot do this ourselves.

What do you like best?

I like the simplicity of the program. The ease of creating accounts, searching for past and present accounts and uploading data.

Recommendations to others considering the product

FileMaker can certainly work to your benefit if you understand that it is created using a multitude of layers. You can create and alter reports to fit your specific business needs which is a great benefit. Data entry is simple and effective.

What do you dislike?

clunky interface needs updating to be truly useful

What do you like best?

Easily makes replicable forms for business purposes

Recommendations to others considering the product

Make your forms airtight at first, as modifications can cause trouble down the line

What do you dislike?

The first thing we really dislike about FileMaker is; at version 10, FileMaker decided to do a breakup point where older file structure became incompatible with new version 11 and above (12, 14, 15, etc.). So one day, all our existing databases became inaccessible if we want to gain access to latest software version. So we decided to stay with v.10 for a while, until it becomes incompatible with newest computers/operating system. Second thing we dislike a lot is the licensing structure for business that are extremely weird and makes it VERY expensive for nothing. The business licensing requires that you pay a annual license fee for ALL BUSINESS EMPLOYEES, no matter if they are using FileMaker or not. It's what they call "business wide licensing" and it's required. Only other option would be to purchase individual retail licences but it's extremely expensive. So for example we are a 65 employees business, but only 20 employees uses F.M., but we have to pay 65x users fees annually!

What do you like best?

Well, only pros about FileMaker is that it's a bit easier to use than other software/database development application software, such as Microsoft Access.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Be careful about the business pricing as I explained in a early question, this can be very expensive for your business.

What do you dislike?

Biggest complaint was that it was very, very slow. Reports could take 15, 20 minutes to process and you couldn't keep working while they ran.

What do you like best?

It provided a useful way to track orders through the supply chain. No frills, but did the job.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Good product, no frills.
