FileMaker WebDirect for $20/user until Dec 21, 2013

[Joe King]

Background...


Worldcloud routinely resales FileMaker licensing to it's clients. Other than our monthly and/or shared server clients, it is a better value for our clients to purchase AVLA licensing as opposed to renting licensing monthly from Worldcloud. This in fact is part of the reason why FileMaker created the FBA program. Once a year we renew the majority of our FileMaker licesning with AVLA licensing. This year, our annual PO is due on Dec 22, 2013. Normally, our users would not care when our licensing renews, as we can resale new licensing at any time through the FileMaker FBA website. The 'catch' this year is that FileMaker has been particualrly generous with the 'conversion' of FileMaker Server Advanced licenses. Not only is the least expensive SKU to get 25 concurrent licenses, but they are also allowing us to increase of these licenses as long as the increase is done on the same aggreement as an existing FileMaker Server Advanced AVLA order, placing us in a unique position to make 'awesome' deals to our clients.



Offer...


Since Worldcloud has the ability to purchase multiple FileMaker Server Advanced / FileMaker 13 Server + 25 Concurrent license on Dec 22 under FMI's current upgrade policy, we are offering 'almost half price' on a license which FMI normally sells for $1,848. This is a one year, AVLA license.

Why...


We have our own reasons:


We realize the number of licenses we purchase from FileMaker is part of the critera used to determine whether a vendor may be considered for FBA Partner status
If we sell enough of these licenses, we can get better 'Tier pricing' on our entire order and will save us money on other licenses on this order.
It's a way to promote Dedicated FileMaker Servers from Worldcloud
It's a way to stop (some) of the compaining about FileMaker's new pricing
It makes us money - not much, but about what we would normally make off reselling a FMI Server license
It's an oppotunity to sell additional licensing- we give (modest) discounts on all FileMaker licensing- call/email for quote
We are in a position (as an AVLA FileMaker Server Advanced license holder) which many other users do not qualify


Normally, we do not go into the specific details of our license renewals in a public forum; however, in this case we felt that if users understood the situation they are more adpt to beleive the creditbiltiy of our offers...

Hi Joe,

 

I've sent three emails, filled in one contact us form, chatted twice in the live chat on your site, over the last week, and no reply.

 

I know it's new years and all... but are you guys still in business?
