“Helps you easily manage people, projects, assets”
by Nick Mead
Creating and managing your own database can often be a daunting prospect. FileMaker Pro combines both power and simplicity giving you the tools you need to create your own with minimum fuss.
Everything runs through the simple FileMaker Quick Start Screen which allows you to do everything from creating a new database, open an existing database or learn more about using FileMaker Pro 9. Click on "Send Link" and FileMaker Pro will create an email with a simple hyperlink that when clicked on, will open your database. You can edit the email in your email client to add any additional instructions or information about your database for your users making it easier than ever for your users to connect to your database. For those terrified of MySQL or Oracle, it also takes the pain out of both systems by allowing you to administer both without any programming knowledge. You can create custom reports, add calculations and other fields as well as build relationships with existing FileMaker data using the easy-to-use tools of FileMaker Pro.
This program definitely makes database management easier but in reality, it really helps to have some programming knowledge to help you through the general setup process.
