FileMaker will stop offering Bento Sept. 30, 2013, and will increase focus on FileMaker Product Line
FileMaker, Inc. is increasing its focus on FileMaker Product Line software. Thanks to the ease of creating iPad and iPhone solutions, our customers' use of FileMaker on iOS is growing rapidly. Our increased focus will create an even better experience for these customers.
As part of our sharpened focus, we will stop further development of the Bento consumer products.
Bento for iPad, iPhone and Mac will continue to be available on the FileMaker Store, and the App Store and Mac App Store, through September 30, 2013.
We will provide technical support for Bento products through July 30, 2014.
We thank you for your support of Bento. We know that many Bento customers will be disappointed.
FileMaker Pro, our powerful yet easy-to-use business database software, will be appropriate for certain users of Bento for Mac. We encourage Bento for Mac customers to visit our "Is FileMaker Pro Right For You?" page to understand the differences between Bento and FileMaker Pro and to download a free trial of FileMaker Pro.
