I am always impressed by the great variety of businesses which use FileMaker Pro to either track their data or automate their business. Even though we have done this for a long time, there is always some business contacting us which is in a totally new field. FileMaker is so versatile that it is infinitely adjustable to whatever the needs of the business may be.
