What do WE do
Filemaker System Analysis & Design
What this REALLY means, is that we will assist you in determining your needs and help you find a total solution.
At A Bridge Solution, we believe in incremental database development as a means of controlling costs, learning from the experience of use, and minimizing the risk of failure.
We can assist in any or all phases of the project life cycle. This includes helping you to determine your needs and recommending resolutions.

FileMaker Database Development
A Bridge Solution provides customized database development services for business, government, and non-profit organizations. Our core competency is building solutions in the FileMaker platform, where we hold FileMaker's highest certifications. With a team of 4 staff, we are capable of deploying both small and large solutions for a wide variety of customers. We service all modern versions of FileMaker Pro, FileMaker Server, and FileMaker Go (for the iPad and iPhone). We also deploy FileMaker databases to the web.
A Bridge Solution provides technical support for installation and configuration of FileMaker Server. This process is frequently performed incorrectly by IT staff untrained in the nuances of FileMaker Server and its needs for stringent backups. A Bridge Solution can provide support for configuring FileMaker to use PHP, ODBC Data Sources, Document Management Servers, etc. Support includes both Windows and Mac servers.
FileMaker on iPad and iPhone
A Bridge Solution has extensive experience with FileMaker Go, the database client for the iPhone and iPad devices. Deploying successful solutions to the iPad and iPhone takes insight and experience to craft a mobile application with an effective user interface. We have been involved with this product since very early on, and have spoken at FileMaker's Developers Conference on this very topic.
