Weinstein cited the ability to rapidly prototype applications and easily build on a framework of functionality as a key reason for their success. Michael and his team have not only designed their SIS from the ground up using Filemaker Pro, but actually made a business out of selling custom solutions to other New York Schools. “With these free updates, we are already making both apps even more powerful and adding new ways to share information remotely.Things got even more interesting when I spoke with Michael Weinstein, the assistant principal at Leon Goldstein High School for the Sciences in Brooklyn. Initial acceptance has been strong and this is just the beginning,” said Ryan Rosenberg, vice president of marketing and services for FileMaker, Inc.

Photos stored in the Filemaker database can also be emailed out to others.

The new update now lets you insert photos that were taken with, or are stored in, your iDevice.

'This feature lets mobile users easily save and distribute reports, create invoices, and share project status directly from their iPad or iPhone.'

Filemaker Go can now produce PDF's from within the app.

It isn't as easy to use as Filemaker's other software, Bento, but if you are building a large, complex database, it's far and away the best choice.įilemaker Go is the mobile platform for Filemaker Pro. Compared to other database software platforms, it is fairly easy to use, and more importantly, easy to keep up with. For those of you who have, need, or are interested in databases, Filemaker Pro is the most complete database software offered on the Mac platform (it's also on the PC but I'm not familiar enough with thePC version to make any claims).
