Windows or Mac?

Windows Server 2022 / 2019

FileMaker Server does not run in ordinary Windows, but requires the purchase of a special version of Windows called Windows Server 2022 (or 2019).

Notes:

• FileMaker Server cannot run on the familiar desktop versions of Windows, i.e. Windows 10 or Windows 8.1.

• There is a cost to purchase Windows Server 2022, it can be expensive and require a lot of IT setup and maintenance.

• Not all software is supported to run on Windows Server, e.g. Adobe Photoshop CC.

• Installation of FileMaker Server is not always straight forward and may require multiple system updates, e.g. Microsoft .NET framework, Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable, etc.

MacOS Sonoma, Ventura, Monterey

FileMaker Server requires macOS Sonoma 14.0, macOS Ventura 13.0 or macOS Monterey 12.0

Notes:

A Mac Mini is the best server option for multiple reasons. Windows Servers are very expensive and require a lot of maintenance. Going with the Mac Mini does not require a special operating system.

• The current standard Mac Mini that is regularly sold automatically has all of the system requirements needed to be a server. Cost wise, the Mac Mini works great with even a Windows-only workstation setup. Especially with how many additional software programs that will only run on Windows (such as CMC).

• The beauty of a Mac Mini as the server is that it can communicate with Windows computers with no problems or delays. No additional purchasing of the Windows Server OS is necessary. Once the Mac Mini as the server is set up (FileMaker Server program is provided for free with the Whiteglove Server/Upgrade cost of $199) then the Mac Mini will communicate to all the PCs using FrameReady, as FileMaker will be "speaking" to FileMaker.

An Internet connection is required to install FileMaker Server on Windows.

IMPORTANT! Available for:

Windows 11 Pro, or Windows 11 Enterprise
• 22H2, 64-bit only
Windows 10 Pro, or Windows 10 Enterprise
• 22H2, 64-bit only
