In some cases, it is possible to fix and recover the corrupt fp5 (FileMaker 6, 5.5), fp7 (FileMaker 10, 9, 8, 7) file. There are several reasons why a filemaker file may have been damaged. I haven’t had the opportunity to try this but there are vendors trying to make this easier, like /xgode.Corrupted filemaker databases are files that suddenly become unusable and can't be opened with FileMaker Pro. If you want to get fancy the FileMaker Go database can exchange data with a database hosted by FileMaker Server using its native data API.Īlso not an apples-to-apples replacement for Runtime, with a learning curve and some related costs, but Claris provides an SDK that allows FileMaker files to be converted into iOS apps.

If you have people that need to use FileMaker in remote locations, and have an iOS device, you can simply email them a copy of a FileMaker database file and they can open it with FileMaker Go at no cost.

Hopefully Android is on the horizon for FileMaker Go and Windows users will get the same functionality. Just speculating here, as many in the community have requested a thin-client, Claris has been waiting for Apple to bring iOS apps (FileMaker Go) to macOS.

When you consider that the cost of a project is overwhelmingly the hours of labor it takes to build a solution and not the cost of the platform itself, it’s easy to see that while you could just build something amazing using a combination of free tools like javascript, PHP, and MySQL, I assure you, it will take many times the hours to do so. Coupled with the vast number of protocols and techniques supported, Filemaker Pro is one of the best tools out there. I’ve looked at MANY alternatives and haven’t found anything that measures up in terms of pure power and speed of development. In the 30 plus years I’ve been working with Filemaker, I can assure you I’ve never stopped looking for something better. Obviously those two ideas are not possible in the same product. The cost of Filemaker licenses and server has long been a subject of debate among people who want their software to be cheap and well-supported.

In the latter case, you can bring your own license but if you don’t have one, they’ll happily add the cost to your monthly number. While you can host your files on your own server, you’ll need licensing to accomplish it… that cost is built in to the subscription cost whether you use Claris’ cloud offering or FMP Host.

I wonder if the Webdirect feature is seen as a way of deploying Filemaker apps to someone who doesn’t want to install a Filemaker client? I never used it myself, but I saw the appeal. I feel for people who had built a business on that model, but frankly you’ve had plenty of time to work out what’s next since we’ve known it was a deprecated feature. In reference to the run-times we used to be able to create, we have known for 10 years that those were on the way out and it took them this long to finally pull that trigger. Those are now turned on with a checkbox in the preferences.

Not everyone needs the functionality that Advanced provides, specifically the script debugger and other such developer tools. I can’t believe nobody has corrected you yet… Advanced hasn’t gone away at all, it just that they’re no longer making it a separate product.
