Frequently asked questions

Claris FileMaker, Claris FileMaker Server, AI automation and integration, and custom software development: what we do and how we work.

Claris FileMaker

What Claris FileMaker services does Point Array offer?

Point Array Consulting builds custom Claris FileMaker systems, including scripting, layouts, and integrations with other software. We also modernize legacy Claris FileMaker solutions and set up, upgrade, and maintain Claris FileMaker Server.

Can you work on legacy Claris FileMaker systems?

Yes. We work on legacy Claris FileMaker systems, including solutions built by someone else that have outgrown their original design. That can mean cleaning up scripts and layouts, improving performance, adding integrations, or planning a step-by-step modernization instead of a rebuild.

Do you help with Claris FileMaker Server?

Yes. We handle Claris FileMaker Server setup, upgrades, backups, and ongoing maintenance, so your solution stays available, secure, and up to date.

Can Claris FileMaker integrate with other software?

Yes. Claris FileMaker can exchange data with other systems through REST APIs, the Claris FileMaker Data API, and OData. Each option has its trade-offs, and we help you choose and implement the best approach for your systems, so data doesn't have to be entered twice.

AI automation & integration

What does AI automation and integration mean for my business?

It means connecting AI tools and automated workflows to the systems you already use, rather than adding another app to learn. Typical examples are drafting emails, summarizing or classifying records, pulling data out of documents, and keeping information in sync between applications.

Can AI work with Claris FileMaker and our other systems?

Yes. We integrate AI models with Claris FileMaker and any other system you run, through APIs and automated workflows, so your tools can generate text, analyze records, and trigger tasks while your data stays where it is.

Software development

Do you build custom software?

Yes. We deliver full web and application development: solutions architecture and production-grade applications that are scalable, reliable, and cost-effective, including serverless architectures. Bring us a problem and we will help design and build the end-to-end solution.
