We use Studio Suite since 2004.

Pro
- very complete
- great support. Joel Stoner is somebody that knows his thing and is very quick in giving answers to your questions or problems
- The fine thing is that with a little knowledge of Filemaker you can adjust almost everything to suite your needs.
- Does almost anything that a company has to handle at the administrative side. (both accounting and technical)
- Price or call it Bang fro the Bucks. When we bought the previous version I was checking alternatives but they where all more expensive or useless/incomplete. (I remember a competitor that had the same features it's called Farmers Wife)

Cons are
- It takes a while for a user to become familiar with the 'program'. Because there is a lot of space and dedicated pages and fields most users start scratching there head. It took me the last four years to have some guys handling simple tasks. On the other hand my wife who does the bookkeeping at the company has the least computer experience of all people over here but she was using the office part of the Studio Suite in less than two weeks...
- speed with multiple users getting data from the server's database

Kind regards from Belgium
