I saw FileMaker Pro 16 for sale on a minute ago for $329.95 and the upgrade version of FileMaker Pro 16 is $197.95 (you need to have FileMaker Pro 14 or higher to upgrade). You may be able to find FileMaker Pro 16 on the market still and get a free upgrade from 16 to 17.

What we did when we started testing FileMaker 17, was make copies of some of our key databases, including our current development version of Studio Manager.

Please note, you don’t go live on day one with an important database. If you know you want to upgrade to FileMaker 17, then the first step might be to download the trial version of 17 and test your copy of Studio Manager, our Studio Manager 16 demo or your own mission critical FileMaker database with it. We’ve written some of the things you should know about it on my FileMaker Fever blog. FileMaker 17 was released this week on May 15.

We love the new version of FileMaker 17 and we have some tips that may save you money and trouble.
