At its heart, Big Business is a Database.
For connections it uses the best databases—and for features, a few. Just a few clicks makes you a guru.

 Built-In Database
Big Business uses a built-in, commercial Database. Compiled for Macs and Windows PC's, it is fast and secure, giving you power and room to grow. Big Business stores all your data including accounting, transactions, and documents and protects them by locking, access you control, and built-in backup. Big Business connects to services, lets you export or email, and exchanges data with your databases. You choose the data to share, and where. Simply intall Big Business to have the full Database power to keep all your data, indefinitely, securely, safely.





 Shipping Database
Big Business uses MySQL to host data being shared with shipping systems, or keeping your web store or other systems up to the minute. Big Business Professional includes setup, installing MySQL, turning on data flow, and configuring UPS WorldShip or FedEx Ship Manager. Connect any high-volume, ODBC-capable shipping system, without oversharing and get all everything you need for Tracking and Charges back. Use your favorite MySQL tool or stack to get data out to your web store, up to your corporate owner, or into your business intelligence or automation.

 Personal Database
SQLite is the database your phone uses to keep data at your fingertips. BigBusiness does the same. Your computer can save you time by keeping static data like pictures and documents at your fingertips. This also lightens the load on your Server which is serving live, changing results to your growing crew. Moreover, it gives you instant access to large images or documents you needn't reload to review.





 Portable Database
Big Business offers custom iPhone and iPad solutions built with FileMaker Go for iOS. iPhones or iPads connect to your Big Business Server using its built-in Web Server for mobile. You choose the content to support fast and easy data-entry of Invoices, Orders, or Inventory. No more shuffling papers when you can get your iPad to do that for you.
