Integrate FileMaker with the tools your business relies on

Most businesses do not run on one piece of software. Alongside FileMaker there is usually an accounting package, an ecommerce platform, a delivery carrier, or specialist industry software that the team depends on every day. When these systems do not talk to each other, someone ends up doing the talking for them, rekeying the same information more than once and hoping nothing gets missed.

We help businesses connect Claris FileMaker with the other systems they already use, so information flows automatically in both directions. That might mean linking FileMaker to your accounts package, your online store, a delivery carrier, or a piece of specialist software built for your sector.

Connect FileMaker to the systems that matter most

FileMaker becomes far more valuable once it stops working in isolation. With the right integration in place, your team enters information once and lets it flow to wherever it is needed next, cutting out duplicate work and the errors that come with it.

We build FileMaker integrations across a wide range of systems, including:

  • accounting and finance packages such as Xero, Sage, QuickBooks and AccountEdge
  • ecommerce platforms including Shopify, WordPress, Magento and Drupal, plus marketplaces like Amazon and eBay
  • delivery and logistics carriers such as Royal Mail, UPS, DHL and Parcelforce
  • HR, payroll and specialist finance systems
  • scheduling and calendar tools
  • enterprise systems such as SAP, Oracle and SharePoint
  • bespoke APIs for software that is specific to your sector

If it has an API, there is a good chance we can connect it to your FileMaker system.

Finance and accounting

Push invoices, payments and customer records between FileMaker and your accounts package automatically, so your finance team stops entering the same details twice.

Ecommerce and sales

Keep stock levels, orders and product information in sync between FileMaker and your online store or marketplace listings, without manual updates on either side.

Logistics and operations

Connect FileMaker to the carriers and operational tools your business depends on, from booking deliveries to tracking stock through the warehouse.

Experienced partners working alongside you

We work best as a strategic software partner, not simply a supplier of connections between systems. We take time to understand how information needs to move through your business before we build anything, so the integration supports the way you actually work rather than adding complexity for its own sake.

As the UK's leading independent Claris FileMaker developers, we have built systems and integrations across manufacturing, publishing, logistics, healthcare and many other sectors over more than 20 years. That experience means we often already know the shape of the problem before you finish describing it.
