Filemaker Pro 11 Upgrade [Old Version]

The product was brand new, at a good price and just what I needed.

I have version 12 but needed v11 to collaborate and this fit the bill most excellent. plus four more words.

What can be said, other than it is an improvement over previous versions in many ways including being more intuitive and functional.

Make sure you have the right version to upgrade from. I have an older version I tried to upgrade, but when I tried it could not find a previous version. So now I am trying to get another version.

DO NOT BUY. Avoid buying anything from FileMaker at all costs. This software may seem easy and simple at first, but can easily spiral out of control. Queries will become slow. Support is poor. Online documentation is not helpful. Problems for 3-4 years ago are still problems in the newer versions. Do not expect them to patch anything in the older versions once newer versions come out. You have to constantly repair the databases and archive data just to keep the system stable. Need something really helpful? If you are lucky you might find a plugin that does what you want, as it is not native to filemaker. Server and clients fail at utilizing memory and cpu. Either does not use them at all, or will consume it all. No troubleshooting tools AT ALL(my personal reason for disliking this software). Filemaker will get stuck, freeze, and crash, but fails to tell you why it did any of that. Ive worked with a couple of these versions, and every time it has been an overwhelming nightmare to work with. Only way I would recommend using this is if you have someone with experience developing in filemaker....lots of experience

Everything worked great very simple upgrade my company had lost our old software and this upgrade got us b up and running immediately

FileMaker Pro 11 is the best version of this database software to-date. Its internal charting ability is worth the price of admission by itself

I purchased this upgrade here but find the License Key provided does not work and I am unable to install the software. I will attempt to return to seller unless I get a reply from Claris tech support. (I purchased this as an intermediary before upgrading to a newer version since I understand my 5.0 files have to be converted through version 11 first, but apparent Claris is not offering support for FM Pro 11 anymore.)

I upgraded from FMP 8. Installation went smoothly and all my databases and scripts run well. My only disappointment is that I had hoped to be able to sync with iPad Filemaker Go, but cant. I can add records on the iPad, then replace the file on my iMac with the iPad file, but they dont sync.
