When I meet people and tell them I build custom apps in FileMaker, the number of people who recall the platform from years and years ago with a nostalgic smile is impressive. Perhaps the loyalty FileMaker users have toward the platform is an important reason Claris FileMaker has thrived for so long. Along with PowerPoint and Microsoft Word, FileMaker stands with some of the few software applications nearing 40 years old. It has become a software platform that has stood the test of time. But in today's age, your FileMaker Pro database management system is no longer a stand-alone solution. It needs to become the hub to connect your existing business applications and integrate them with custom solutions in the cloud.
Last week Claris announced the first public availability of the new Claris Platform Bundle. Do you deal with scattered information and inaccurate data? Gain greater visibility across your entire business with the cloud-based Claris Platform which integrates the full capabilities of FileMaker Pro with the new Claris Studio environment, Claris Connect, and more. We would love to help you work simpler, faster, and smarter. Contact us for a walkthrough of how you can solve your problems by using Claris Studio. Or schedule a Calendly call. Claris Studio will also be a featured topic at an upcoming Claris Beyond Meetup.
Kanban boards are useful project management tools to help visually depict work. They visually depict work at various stages of a process using cards to represent work items and columns to represent each stage of the process. For instance, one of our clients, VN Graphics, uses them to track the flow of a graphic design job through the initial order, design, pre-press, and production. I love Kanban boards so when I found out that Claris had included one in their free Add-Ons, I was excited to try it out.
