FileMaker has announced that it’s discontinuing Bento, its consumer-level database for the Mac and iOS. The app will be available for purchase until September 30.

First introduced back in 2008, Bento sought to make databases less intimidating to the average user. It automatically imported contacts and calendar events, provided iTunes-like search tools, and let users drag-and-drop items for import. The company rapidly iterated on that initial release—Bento 2 came out in late 2008, Bento 3 in 2009, and the current version, Bento 4, in 2011—adding integration with Mail and iPhoto, multi-user sharing, improved security, and more along the way.

FileMaker says that it is discontinuing Bento in order to focus on its namesake product line. If you want a database product, the company is encouraging you to take a look at FileMaker Pro. The company does offer a migration tool that helps you move data from Bento 4 for Mac to FileMaker Pro 12. The Mac version can also export databases to Numbers, Excel, and comma- or tab-delimited formats. Those who used just the iOS versions of Bento can get a free trial version of the app for the Mac, sync their iOS data to that, then export from there to whatever new format they choose. For Bento users who choose to make the migration to the full-powered database tool, the company website recommends using FileMaker Pro’s built-in “starter” templates.

Users who bought Bento from the Mac or iTunes app stores but then accidentally delete it will still be able to download it again from those sources. Those looking for old software updates will be able to download those from the FileMaker Product Downloads Archive until July 30, 2014 (and possibly beyond). And Bento’s support forums will also continue to be moderated until then.

Migrating from Bento to Tap Forms Mac After FileMaker stopped developing and supporting Bento, Tap Forms 5 offers Bento users the only place they can easily call home. Tap Forms 5 is the only database application for Mac with a built-in native Bento template importer. It should be a layer of convinience in Mac OS X, when shipped. It would make life on your mac so much easier! I love iLife and iWork, but why an 'orginizer' like Bento isn´t an integraded part of the OS is a mystery to me? That would be a big selling point, as it would make your Mac even more intuitative and easy to use in daily life.

Bento is a discontinued databaseapplication for Mac OS X made by the former FileMaker Inc., since renamed to Claris. Bento differed significantly from the company's flagship product, FileMaker Pro, in that it relied heavily on templates and integration with other applications. By default, Bento's data sources included Apple's Address Book and Calendar (previously called iCal) applications, which it could modify directly. FileMaker announced on July 31, 2013, that it would discontinue Bento on September 30, 2013.^[1]

Compatibility[edit]

Bento was only compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 or later due to its reliance on features not available in previous versions of the operating system. Certain actions, such as switching templates, used Core Animation to animate the transition. It also included integration with Time Machine for backing up and required iCal 3.0 (later renamed Calendar) for live data editing.^[2]

Release schedule[edit]

Version history[edit]

Template sharing[edit]

A Bento Template was a pre-made library with all the forms necessary to catalog items within a certain context. With the release of Bento 2 on October 14, 2008, Bento users could import, export and share their templates. On June 16, 2009 Filemaker launched its own template sharing site^[5] where users could download a variety of templates as well as share their own. A couple of other user-created template sharing sites also existed:

Upgrade controversy[edit]

On October 14, 2008, FileMaker released Bento 2.0 with bug fixes and new features, including integration with Apple's Mail. The new version did not offer upgrade pricing and cost the same as version 1. Many customers expressed their disappointment at the official Bento user forums,^[6] where FileMaker responded that they were using the 'same pricing model' as other companies' products such as Apple's iWork and iLife suites.

Additionally, on November 25, FileMaker provided an official statement^[7] indicating that they would discontinue revisions and bug fixes for the version 1 product.

Bento 1 received extensive beta testing, but like every software product, issues were discovered after shipment. We followed up with Bento 1.0.2 to address critical issues that had been discovered.
In addressing product issues discovered after 1.0.2 for the 2.0 release, we reworked the product in significant, and sometimes, architectural ways. Simply put, this means that there is no way to easily migrate the fixes in 2.0 backwards to 1.0. We would have to reengineer 1.0 until it effectively became 2.0. Doing so would have strongly delayed the 2.0.3 version of Bento, which we will be releasing as a free update for Bento 2.0.1/2.0.2 this week, and continued development of the Bento product line.

As of May 20, 2012, the price for Bento 4 was $49 for a single license, or $99 for a 'Family Pack' of five licenses.^[8]

Discontinuation[edit]

FileMaker announced on July 31, 2013, that it would completely discontinue the Bento product line on September 30, 2013, with technical support for Bento products finally ending on July 30, 2014.^[1]
