Reporting is quite challeaging. It take so much time to load when the databas has a lot of records ( > 10,000 records) ExcuteSQL is very usefull tools in FM but very slow if you use too much. Which is bad when you do reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a dynamic solution that doesn't require mad programming skills. The basic understanding of how data relates to itself will allow a user to build complex custom solutions for their needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish it was easier to purchase what you need straight off their website. I have an organization which wanted to update our server but if you want to do so without you need to purchase additional licenses to go with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only con with this app is the licensing price. Small businesses could have difficulty justifying the cost of creating/customizing their own database and hosting and licensing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FileMaker is an extremely versatile, user/developer friendly, and comprehensive platform. Although FileMaker was originally a simple database, over the past three decades, it has become a full development platform. With a fundamental database skillset, you can create simple solutions in a fairly short amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program can be frustrating when entering data in several fields, slowing down the work in significant quantities according to the development attracting losses, more annoying when it comes to companies that are characterized by having a high and fluid performance and performance when it comes to exercise the labor margin, being an inconvenience that requires an update, to solve these failures that the system currently presents, mentioned that Filemaker can be difficult to use.

Filemaker doesn't seem to talk to a lot of other software systems. We can integrate our email system, but we can't tie it into our PO database system or digital asset management system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
