It’s that time again for the FileMaker Excellence Awards nominations. Every year at the annual FileMaker Developers Conference (August 15-18), FileMaker honors those individuals and companies who have made a difference. FBA members received their voting instructions this week. And finally, in all the years Excelisys has been sponsoring DevCon and never winning an award, it finally dawned on me… It must be because I’ve never VOTED!  ;-)

Apparently, voter turn-out hasn’t been what it should have in the past. So this year, I’m doing my part and participating. If you’re an FBA member (which you should be) and going to DevCon in San Diego this year, definitely take a moment to cast your ballot. And when you do, think of Excelisys! Here’s what I submitted.

I hereby nominate EXCELISYS for category #2 (Contribution to the FileMaker community), and for category #3 (Solution of the Year) for the Excelisys Business Tracker. Here’s why:

Excelisys enjoys being ranked among its peers as exemplifying professionalism in every aspect, raising the bar on innovative FileMaker techniques and being regular contributors to the developer community.  Frequently a past sponsor of the annual FileMaker Developer Conference as well as providing some of its speakers over the years, Excelisys is a symbol of longevity and prosperity even despite a down-turned economy and a world of fly-by-night consultancies. Every week, dozens of FileMaker developers try to join the Excelisys team, because they know about the reason for our success. Not all make it, but we help those that don’t understand why and point them in the direction they need to improve their skills.

The Excelisys Business Tracker is a free, unlocked solution given away to the FileMaker community to understand the true power of FileMaker in a workgroup environment. Hundreds of hours of development work have gone into creating a jump-start solution that scales well and is easily expandable. We’ve had thousands of downloads, and received lots of compliments from FileMaker developers around the world for being so generous providing a tool that teaches them real-world applications of FileMaker’s impressive feature set. We appreciate the opportunity to give back to the development community from which we have received so much support over the years.

So don’t forget to go out and VOTE! And we’ll see you in San Diego…
