IWP with server

[posternutbag]

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?

[IdealData]

Correct. Note also that FMP and FMPA have maximum 5 IWP clients, whereas FMSA allows 100.

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.

Forgive me for asking, then- What is the benefit of FM server (non-advanced), over FM advanced (non-server)?

[IdealData]

There are many benefits - when the feature differences become important to YOU.

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.

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