[ANN] Productive Computing Releases Innovative New Support and Maintenance Program

San Diego, CA – November 9, 2018 - Productive Computing, Inc., a Platinum member of the FileMaker Business Alliance, is proud to announce a new Maintenance Support Program for FileMaker users.

This program is intended to provide FileMaker customers a low-cost alternative to time and materials billing when performing “fix it” type programming and regular maintenance on their systems. 
 
Support plans are designed to improve the performance of a FileMaker app by fixing nagging issues that users create workarounds for, reducing the costs associated with upgrading from one version of FileMaker to the next, providing a means to clean up and modernize legacy code, improving a solution’s user interface, and regularly meeting with and getting advice from a certified FileMaker development team.
 
This program allows its users unlimited access to FileMaker experts without worrying about the bill.

Productive Computing’s FileMaker Support Program includes:

• Unlimited support on small development and support requests
• Unlimited support on FileMaker Pro usage/training
• Free consulting sessions on programming best practices and workflow recommendations
• Free Health Assessment ($1,000 value)
• One free subscription to Productive Computing University ($149/yr value)
• Annual customer workflow audit, FileMaker new features overview, and system recommendation report

"We just completed a massive upgrade in our FileMaker system and, now that we’re on the maintenance program, we’re able to reduce ongoing costs for any remaining open issues as a result of the deployment. The maintenance program has unquestionably delivered a tremendous value for an affordable price." Alana W., 25 Users, Historic and Fine Art Industry Representatives

• Discounted hourly billing rates for larger custom development projects
