Development Philosophy

Writing your own software in-house is problematic—so is buying an inflexible commercial product. Solutions need to be full-featured, yet flexible enough to meet your unique mission. That’s why we pioneered the concept of providing open, customizable FileMaker®Pro software-based solutions.

FileMaker® Pro is cross-platform, networkable and the most widely-used workgroup software in the world. "Open" means that we deliver the databases to you with all the passwords. You are in control of your data. "Customizable" means the solution, by design, is powerful and complete out-of-the-box, but allows for further addition of fields, layouts and reports to match your specific needs.

Your empowerment is part of the solution

We know our clients. They are dedicated, capable professionals who need solutions that empower them. We believe that users should be free to see, understand, and control their own information. That’s why we train you to continue on your own. Our systems and solutions are at your command, not ours. Go ahead: add a new report or field. Being in the driver’s seat has never been so easy.

Integration is overrated

No multifaceted organization can shoehorn every aspect of itself into one “total solution.” Plenty have tried at significant expense, with unhappy results. We support the best, most productive system for each office.  Then we see to it that your information flows easily between systems.

This can mean partnering with various companies in whatever configuration makes sense for you.

True integration is balance, your unique harmony of campus-based solutions, hosted web solutions, and partnerships.

Great relationships over the long haul

We’re so good at what we do because we understand our clients and their challenges. We’ve been in your shoes. That’s how we can provide practical solutions and strategies.

We don’t partner to sell products—we team to provide expertise and guidance in a conversation to address your evolving needs.  

We stand by our clients. Supporting your long-term success means being there when and where you need us. Our clients love it. We’ve been at this for over a decade; that’s why more than 95 percent stay with us.
