Start new FileMaker projects easily
The fastest way for a new development
FileMaker makes development quick and easy. Nevertheless, new projects are a challenge because there are many tasks that are needed but that no client ever talks about. Navigation, for example, or a good project structure. However, if you have a start file in which important elements already have a place, you can simplify and speed up development considerably. How can a new FileMaker project be started more quickly and, above all, more easily?
It doesn’t matter whether you are just starting to develop with FileMaker or are an experienced developer realizing new projects: Many basic requirements must be fulfilled. These include, for example:
- Good project structure
- User management
- Navigation
- Text labels.
These and many other tasks require solutions that stand the test of time, are easy to maintain and can be expanded as required. Once you have a solution that covers these basic requirements, it is much easier to develop. It’s like shortening the development by many months. If you start developing as a beginner or career changer, you save even more time and money.

FrankCRM
Many users first need address management and must be able to write invoices. These tasks are already integrated in FrankCRM.
FrankCRM is based on FM Starter, but has been further developed in one direction: There is an address database and invoices can be created. However, these tasks have been structured in such a way that all settings can be managed via separate pages. Everything is dynamically structured and can be controlled particularly easily using normal layouts.
Trial version
FrankCRM can be downloaded as a free trial version. There are the following limitations in the free version: A maximum of 20 addresses and no access to the developer dashboard. This test file cannot be edited.
Full version
FrankCRM is also available as a full license. Then there are no limits. It is an open FileMaker file. All the features of FM Starter are integrated and there is also a functioning address management system and an extremely flexible sales module. There is full access to the developer dashboard with configuration options. The regular full version is a license for 1 company at 1 location. There is a sales license that can be used for several locations or can be developed into a separate industry solution – with the right to sell.
