“FileMaker utilized as Electronic Health Record”
We custom built our initial EHR using FileMaker. While we utilized FileMaker as our EHR for 5+ years it eventually was unable to keep up with our needs and complexity of our company, as well as HIPPA requirements and the need to submit claims electronically.

Integration and implementation is about as difficult as other products.
FileMaker, as a company, is easy to work with but like all companies selling a product, their goal is to get the most money out of you. If you're not savvy and or don't know what you want, you may end up paying more than you need to. - Senior FileMaker Developer<50M USDMiscellaneousReview Source
Best Database System Ever
Been developing in FileMaker for almost 15 years. Love the flexibility and power combination. Nothing else like it on the market. - Market Research Manager<50M USDMediaReview Source
Needs to be more intuitive
Decent software, but far from being intuitive. Seems to require special training to be able to utilize. - Environmental Engineer<50M USDServices (non-Government)Review Source
Impressive simplicity for implementation, but needs more tools for server syncing.
The simplicity of creating a workable mobile database is extremely useful for collecting and recording field data to our server in real time. Our clientele have been impressed with their ability to view these data with individualized profiles we assign to them. The necessity to integrate third party applications for server syncing, however, especially when away from a data signal leaves room for improvement for an all-in-one solution.
