Let’s discuss why you should upgrade your FM and how it can help you.”
Latest FileMaker has more templates than before:The silent motto of FileMaker is “No more coding, No more expertise, start your business ERP from within FM!!”. Usually, a business ERP means lots of coding, lots of back-end programming and lots of server data; however with FileMaker, the concept is absolutely changed. It does not require high level coding from an expert programmer rather a common man can design its business solution without much hassle. You need not to worry about the look and feel of your application; neither should you worry about the database access. All are taken cared by FileMaker itself. There are many enterprise standard templates and themes available for your FM application. Moreover, these latest templates are highly optimized and having amazing user interface. So, FileMaker developers will love the experience of designing the business applications with FileMaker.
It’s more feature loaded: Apart from designing tools i.e. Templates; it has many advanced features added with the recent version of FileMaker. You can now do anything with your script i.e. starting from creation to edit and view; all can be done with Script Workspace. Auto complete and Search options are added for better user experience. You can now organise all your important FM solutions with visual effects that are already present inside the application as icons or you can also create your own icon to manage these apps. Along with that, integration of Place-Holder, Button bars, Button icon, Colour selections etc. can help you a lot for improved user experience and hence quality of your application.
Now, access your FM application from non-apple machines: Apple never takes any chance for its customers and always tries to keep them alive within its ecosystem. But things have changed a lot, now FileMaker is available with its rival Windows machine! What’s more? You can access your FM application from a windows machine that might be laid at the corner of your home being unused for a long time. Now turn ON your windows machine and do some productive work from that. It is really a welcoming feature of FileMaker and it helps FileMaker in gaining more popularity in the industry.
