FileMaker has announced a “Buy One FileMaker, Give One Free” holiday offer that allows those purchasing a downloadable copy of FileMaker Pro 11 from the online FileMaker Store to receive a second downloadable copy for free — an US$299 value.

Participants can use the free copy within their organizations or give it to a friend, colleague, client or charity. The offer expires Dec. 15.

The offer applies only to FileMaker Pro and is limited to one gift request per person, per household, and per company. The promotion is valid only for the downloadable version of FileMaker Pro 11 and applies only to new versions of FileMaker Pro 11 — not for software upgrades, updates, volume licenses and/or site licenses.

The free version is a fully working, not-for-resale version of FileMaker Pro 11 for Mac or Windows. The offer isn’t valid in connection with any other rebates, discounts, or promotions. For more info go to http://info.filemaker.com/bogopromo2011.html .
