Claris Engage 2020 Recap & Excellence Award

September 2, 2020 - August Newsletter Highlights

Were You Engaged? 25 Years of Community, Connection, and Collaboration

The Claris Engage Developers Conference wrapped up at the beginning of August, where attendees joined remotely for the first time for this annual industry event. Celebrating 25 years of the Claris community connecting looked much different on a virtual platform but was two days full of engaging content including several announcements, interesting panel discussions, and live demonstrations.

It kicked off with the keynote where the challenging chain of events of 2020 were discussed. This year has brought many new obstacles and changes, but the Claris platform and community has adapted very well overall.

Some of the biggest accomplishments for Claris this year have included the release of FileMaker 19, introducing JavaScript and add-ons, bringing a new product to market in Claris Connect, and introducing their first-ever Linux version of FileMaker Server.

Winner of the Claris Engage Excellence Award 2020

Thank you to Claris, our students, and viewers! We are honored to receive the Claris Excellence Award at Claris Engage 2020.

Over the years, we have gained a lot of FileMaker development, tips, techniques, and advanced knowledge about the platform. We created Productive Computing University and expanded our YouTube channel to share this advanced knowledge with the other FileMaker developers and users. We also wanted to build courses to help developers learn about API integration and prep for FileMaker Certification. We truly appreciate all the support we have received from the FileMaker community and want to thank Claris, our customers, viewers, and students!

"What an honor it is to receive the Claris Excellence award for the Education Pillar. Productive Computing University started as a dream many years ago to help people better prepare for the FileMaker Certification Exam or learn other advanced technologies such as integration with APIs. eLearning is more critical now than ever and we're proud and thankful to help people on their journey as they explore and master the Claris platform. We are inspired by the announced Claris offerings, and we'll be right there with more innovative and useful courses along the way."

- Marc Larochelle, Chief Executive Officer, Productive Computing, Inc.
