DevCon: FileMaker = Workgroup Solution

Friday/08/25 2006 | Happenings

At the FileMaker Developers' Conference, several "Under the Hood" sessions presented by FileMaker engineers and marketing staff made it easy for Entellic to passionately commit to FileMaker development.

One of the good things about being an independent consulting business is that you can choose nearly any toolset to get results. At Entellic, our staff has been using FileMaker since version 1.5 in one capacity or another.

At the FileMaker Developer's conference this year, we had an opportunity to hear directly from FileMaker personnel about the current and future capabilities of the software. One thing is apparent: While FileMaker is already a stellar tool for integrating data and providing easy-to-use workgroup toolsets, it's only going to get better.

Though Non-Disclosure Agreements will not allow us to say much more than that, we can tell you this much: If the next version of FileMaker delivers only a fraction of the potential features, it's going to blow away the obstacles between workgroups and legacy systems. Of all the gadgets in a workgroup's toolbox, FileMaker will rise as the most trusted, capable tool for gathering, processing, and reporting online and offline data.

Therefore, we are pleased to commit ourselves to providing a superior level of FileMaker development and implementation.
