Rating: - Terrific - packed with ideas you can use in your business
I was going to give this book a very enthusiastic five star review, but having read other people's reviews, I can see their point. However, this book has already saved me thousands of dollars simply with its CRM solution (all tutorial files are downloadable unlocked from the author's website). Applications are included for just about every conceivable business need. You can just steal them, or follow along and your FileMaker abilities will take a quantum leap.

Rating: - Missing Information in this Information Book
This book gets great reviews from enthusiastic readers. I need to wonder how carefully they read it.

Warning! This book is so poorly written that you need to have very advanced knowledge of the software ... Read More
Rating: - The one to own!
A tremendous resource, this book is a must, if you use FileMaker you will not find a better one-stop shop. This is definitely one of the best written and laid out books I have come across. Evans has compiled a book that gives newer users a step by step guide and more experienced users a resource to referrer to when need. In addition the writing style makes it easier for all and the excellent case studies provide scenarios that all users can learn from. Bottom line, get it!
