September 28, 201114 yr Just want to make sure I've got something straight here: Filemaker Pro 11, Advanced, and Server Advanced all have IWP, but the plain Server version does not?
September 28, 201114 yr Correct. Note also that FMP and FMPA have maximum 5 IWP clients, whereas FMSA allows 100.
September 28, 201114 yr If you are going to be using IWP in a production mode, I would strongly suggest that you use FIleMAker Server Advanced. Don't even think about peer to peer. Steven
September 29, 201114 yr Author Forgive me for asking, then- What is the benefit of FM server (non-advanced), over FM advanced (non-server)?
September 29, 201114 yr There are many benefits - when the feature differences become important to YOU.
September 29, 201114 yr Forgive me for asking, then- What is the benefit of FM server (non-advanced), over FM advanced (non-server)? FileMaker Server, either standard or advanced versions, provides for the safe and reliable hosting of up to 125 files with automated backups, server side script execution, and encryption of data in transit. Depending on the server version it also allows for multiple simultaneous connections of at least 250 users. FileMaker Pro, either standard or advanced, does none of this. Steven

Given the price difference, I can get over not having IWP.
