FileMaker 12 coming to PestaRoo!

May 2012. Normally we only share completed items in our “What’s New”.  But this news is a pre-announcement: We are busy converting PestaRoo to FileMaker 12!  Hooray! Those of you who have been with us for many years know that we skipped FileMaker 11 because of a value list bug [...]

Credit Naming

March 2012. The ability to easily manage Credits for customers has proven to be a valuable new addition.

So, you can have credits for different areas or locations.  These [...]

March 2012. One of PestaRoo’s most powerful features, ‘PreScheds’, just got better!
