Last week, Claris announced two exciting new initiatives, the first a new Software as a Service (SaaS) platform called Claris Studio, and the second a new program for helping Claris users get the most out of their solutions. The Problem Solvers Circle is, “a development platform that lets you take control, instead of reinventing the wheel, allowing you to continuously innovate to make substantial operational improvements.” Enrollment in the PSC program is limited to the first 500 companies to sign up before June 24th, so contact us soon if you’d like to enjoy its benefits!
We all know that Claris has added significant new capabilities in the last several versions of FileMaker Pro for creating custom web applications, especially with the introduction of the FM Data API in FileMaker 16. With the recent successful production deployment of a new custom web app project, I thought it would be a good time to write a blog post about a couple of web applications we’ve done for clients utilizing FileMaker Pro as the back end database engine.
When it comes to Claris FileMaker development, having a clear plan prior to development is definitely key. When communicating design concepts and generating ideas with a client during the early stages, having resources that make the process more efficient can be helpful. One tool that can be used to help with creating a blueprint of your database is wireframing.
Visit our Office Hours page to get the Zoom links. Every first and third Thursdays, from 1pm - 2pm Pacific, we’ll be “in the office” with you to discuss various technical topics regarding Claris products. Topics will be based off of our technical blog posts or other aspects related to FileMaker and Claris Connect. You are welcome to bring your other tech questions as well. Attendance is free and the invitation is open to all experience levels. We look forward to the discussions!
iPaaS stands for ‘Integration Platform as a Service’ and if that isn’t one of the less clear product categories around, I don’t know what is. Everyone knows what a coffee vendor sells, but what does an iPaaS vendor provide?
To start the year off right, here’s 10 quick FileMaker Pro tips to optimize your daily workflow and improve your FileMaker experience. I wish I would have known these a lot sooner!
