Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Close(r) - but still not worth the money Comment: FileMaker Pro 7 (and it's new version 8) have one leg up on Microsoft Access: the are cross-platform. You can use FileMaker on Macs and PCs. Microsoft doesn't make an Access for Mac, either stand-alone or bundled with Office.
If you don't know how to use Access, if you don't know too much about relational database management systems, FileMaker is probably for you. It's much easier to use than Access. But if you have invested the time to learn Access enough to do the basics - create tables, complex queries, and forms, and to produce useful reports - stick with Access.
Switching to FileMaker means learning a whole new system, and once you do, you will not be any more productive than you already are. Customer Rating: Summary: This version is lightyears away from earlier versions Comment: I'm a database professional, one of the few MySQL Certified Professionals in the country. I've been familiar with dBase, InfoFile, Clarion, Microsoft Access, FoxPro, Oracle, SQL Server and PostgreSQL, most since their earliest incarnations.
I've been tinkering with FileMaker since version 3 (1995). It never seemed much more than an oh-so-slightly souped-up version of the database in ClarisWorks/AppleWorks.
I've always evaluated FileMaker's time-limited downloads, but was never impressed.
But version 7 is a quantum leap, highly matured. If you want a replacement for the buggy and unstable Microsoft Access, here it is.
On a note, I bought a copy of FileMaker 7 on eBay. When I registered it, FileMaker told me that it was a pirated copy, which diminished my opinion of that online service.
I believe that if "a software is good enough to use, it's good enough to pay for". On a shoestring budget, I needed to find the best price, and it was here on Amazon. Customer Rating: Summary: Amazing Comment: The improvements made over version 6 are monumental! A must have for database users and users of previous versions! A+++++ Customer Rating: Summary: Have been using for 2 months now. Comment: I have been using Filemaker 7 for Mac for 2 motnhs now. I am so happy with all the improvements they have made. Hands down this is the best database program (Mac or PC) ever made. A must buy! Customer Rating: Summary: Great software! Comment: This Filemaker is the best version yet! Highly recommended!
