We're the UK's #1 ranked Claris Partner, led by a Claris MVP. When you work with Clockwork, you're working with the team that other FileMaker developers come to when they're stuck.
Off-the-shelf software works until it doesn't. The workarounds accumulate, the spreadsheets multiply, and the original vendor either can't or won't change the things that matter. Custom FileMaker development eliminates that problem at source, you get a system designed around your actual processes, maintained by people who understand both the platform and your business.
We typically work with organisations where data is central to operations but the tools they're using aren't keeping up. Common starting points include:
When the business is running on Excel and the cracks are showing, version control, multi-user access, no audit trail, we build the system that should have been there from the start.
Sage on one side, a warehouse system on the other, a spreadsheet in the middle. We build the integrations that remove the manual steps and the errors they create.
Artwork generation, order processing, reporting, document creation, if your team is doing the same thing repeatedly, it can usually be automated.
FileMaker Go for iPad and iPhone, WebDirect for browser access, Data API for integration with web applications. Your system works where your people are.
FileMaker's development environment lets us build and iterate quickly. You see working software early, and changes don't require a redevelopment cycle.
FileMaker is a proper relational database platform with robust multi-user support. It scales from a handful of users to hundreds without architectural changes.
REST APIs, SQL, Claris Connect, ODBC, MBS Plugin. We've connected FileMaker to more systems than we can count, Sage, Xero, SAP Ariba, Adobe InDesign, Microsoft Graph, and many more.
