The Claris Partner Program connects businesses and independent problem solvers with the tools, training, and resources to build and deliver custom applications on the Claris platform. Partners receive internal software licenses to build, test, and demo client solutions, gain access to the Claris Partner Directory, and receive direct support from the Claris partner team.
Claris Partners build and deliver custom software solutions for businesses using Claris FileMaker and Claris Connect. Depending on your business, you may work as a consultant, reseller, training provider, or hosting provider, serving clients across industries and organization sizes.
We look for established businesses and independent problem solvers with demonstrated experience building custom applications or providing consulting, training, hosting, and/or resale services. Specific criteria vary by partner category and region, but the most important requirements are a commitment to high standards of development excellence, client satisfaction, and professional business practices.
Annual membership fees are structured by tier and region to remain accessible for growing practices. The commercial value of included internal-use software licenses, partner resources, and training benefits typically offsets the annual membership cost. You can view complete regional fee tables in the downloadable Partner Program Guide.
You do not need to hold a certification to start the conversation with our team. However, certain directory listings and program benefits may require at least one Claris fully certified developer on your team. Our partner team will walk you through what applies to your business during the introductory call.
A member of the Claris partner team will review your information and reach out within two business days to provide you more information about the program. We will then schedule a brief introductory call to learn about your business, discuss your goals, and guide you through the enrollment process.
