Less costly development. Thanks to FileMaker's rapid development tools, we can work faster and handle customization more easily, thus reducing the costs of development.

Power. FileMaker is based on a powerful database engine that can support terabytes of data and hundreds of users that includes a PHP API for driving your business. It's used by many small and mid-sized businesses as their enterprise database engine and by large corporations and government agencies to support departmental applications.
