Fish Data Management Services
I came to eXcelisys feeling overwhelmed with the FileMaker Pro database project I had been hired to develop for a program at Cornell University. After spending several weeks in development, then feeling stuck for a few weeks, I decided to hire a FileMaker Pro consultant to assist me. I made my needs clear — that I wanted guidance and support, not someone doing it for me — and that while I had developed for many years, this was a more complex project than I had tackled before. I met virtually with Doug West several times. He was very knowledgeable, and more importantly, patient and kind as he helped me clarify the tables, relationships and scripts needed to allow students to use WebDirect (and Active Directory authentication) to submit weekly questionnaires. My FM skills have developed a great deal because of this project and Doug’s tutelage. While the cost per hour was far more than I was making per hour, in the long run, it was well worth the investment. I would definitely use them again.
