lets them do something like this in next years. Maybe the cloud strategy from FileMaker Inc.

Or maybe limit it to require to be on same machine as FileMaker Developer. Include a free Server license for n connections and limited to n databases.Same as current Pro Advanced, but makes clear in name that it is intended for the people building solutions.Īnd I really expect anyone who writes scripts wants the debugger!.Can be licensed perpetual, annually or in volume like now.Brings connection license for FileMaker Server with application (like now).The existing FileMaker Pro marketed as the enhanced FileMaker application which offers editing and creating databases for the ordinary user.Could be given away by people with their database to demonstrate software to potential clients.

Could be preinstalled by Apple on Macs in all stores and come with good start databases to demonstrate people what FileMaker can do.Could have help entry and/or start/end splash screen to tell people to get FileMaker Developer to build own solution or FileMaker Server for multi user functionality.More or less same as FileMaker Go, but for desktop.open last database opened or some default database placed in Library/Application Support folder. Can use local database for free, so it can replace runtimes or start with local database to later connect to server.Į.g.Plugins and dictionaries need to be in Library/Application Support folders. Requires connection license on server when used with server.Free to download on FileMaker website without registration, in Mac App Store and Microsoft App Store.No editing features or create database.to offer three different levels for the desktop product: App, Pro and Developer: I think it may be worth for FileMaker Inc. Today I gave some thought to the product idea ' Remove 'Pro' from the product name?'.
