difference between filemaker server o only filemaker pro for users

With FM16 single user is FM Pro. Anything else FM recommends using FMS to host a shared file. Generally this means you will always need both.

FM Pro is what users use to access a file.

FM Server hosts the file the users access.

FileMaker Server hosts your FileMaker solutions for multiple people to access. Data entry cannot be done on FileMaker Server. Only Filemaker Pro, Go or Advanced can do data entry.

 

Hello,

I want to buy filemaker 16, this is the first time y buy this software and u don´t know the difference between filemaker server o only filemaker pro for users. Which are the best?

Thanks for helping
