FileMaker Hosting
And Licenses
We provide our clients with a complete service including licensing and high quality hosting, so you have a single point of contact and the assurance of a fair price.
FileMaker offers flexible options for licensing and hosting, but the differences between the offerings can be subtle and technical, with serious implications for connectivity and backwards compatibility. We have worked with the FileMaker organisation (now Claris) and the FileMaker platform for many years, so can guide you through the technical considerations and advise on the real-life cost implications.
Finding the Right
FileMaker Hosting
We utilise trusted third-party hosting services for Linux FileMaker Server hosting, ensuring reliable and secure hosting solutions for our clients. We partner with professional hosting providers to deliver high-performance infrastructure that meets the demanding requirements of FileMaker applications.
We can recommend several excellent alternative hosting options including Ottomatic, which we particularly recommend for their exceptional service and infrastructure. We also assist with FileMaker Cloud setup and configuration, helping you leverage Claris's cloud-based solutions. For clients who prefer self-hosting, we provide expert guidance on setting up and maintaining your own FileMaker Server infrastructure.
Our extensive experience with various hosting environments means we can help you determine the right approach - whether that's using professional third-party hosting, setting up FileMaker Cloud, or implementing your own servers. If you are considering your options for FileMaker support or a complete new system, we will be happy to discuss the hosting options. Please contact us.
Securing Your
FileMaker Licenses
As official resellers of Claris licenses, we work closely with Claris to ensure our clients get the most suitable licensing deals for their needs. We have built a strong relationship with Claris over many years and can answer any queries or questions you have regarding licenses or infrastructure.
The most common licensing is for FileMaker Server which includes the server software, desktop and mobile apps and website integrations. We offer FileMaker licenses at competitive prices, with volume discounts available. Our expertise helps you navigate the various licensing options to find the most cost-effective solution for your organization.
Whether you need help with licensing, support, or development, please talk to us for expert, impartial advice on the best approach to meet your specific requirements.
