(hint: Highly flexible)

Unfortunately, software has a well-deserved bad reputation for being rigid and hard to change. So we wrote InBloom in FileMaker 8.5. Because of its excellent design and focus on delivering power with simplicity, you can customize screen layouts and reports to suit your business perfectly. People like to tweak their systems and keep tweaking them, so you can just change it or we can do it for you. Explore & Learn
