FileMaker Delivers Bento Christmas Kit
A fun, stress-free way to get organised for this Christmas with free Bento Christmas Kit for Mac, iPhone and iPad
United Kingdom – 1st December 2011 – FileMaker today announced The Bento Christmas Kit, a free, fun way to get organised this Christmas – on a Mac or on the go using an iPhone or iPad. The Bento Christmas Kit organises your Christmas cards and mailing labels, helps you plan parties, track gift lists, send thank you notes and accomplish other Christmas tasks with style and ease.
The Bento Christmas Kit includes a free, 30-day trial of Bento 4 for Mac, FileMaker’s popular personal database, and three additional templates that put Christmas details all in one place. Filemaker’s Bento is the most-popular line of personal database products for Mac, iPhone and iPad, receiving 4 Stars from both MacFormat and Macworld UK.
The Christmas Kit comes with a Cards and Labels template that allows you to apply the power of a personal database to organise the sending and receiving of Christmas cards. Easily print mailing labels, check off who sent what and when, track card recipients’ names, addresses, family members, pertinent notes and even add images of the actual photos and cards received. Plus, the databases can be synchronised with Bento for iPhone, Bento for iPad so you will always have details at hand when you’re away from your Mac. Bento for iPhone and Bento for iPad are sold separately on the App Store.
The Christmas Kit also comes with a Party Planning template that makes it easy to plan parties, track RSVPs, and all the tasks associated with putting on company events, cocktail parties, and family dinners.
On the gift-giving side, the Christmas Kit includes a Gift List template for tracking and budgeting gifts. With this template, you can track purchases and costs and add a picture of the present. The template also tracks donations, and will provide a holistic tally of spending.
“Everyone wants a stress-free Christmas, filled with fun and laughter and no last-minute scrambling around to do tasks. That’s why our Bento Christmas Kit is a perennial favourite among Bento users,” said Ryan Rosenberg, vice president of marketing and services for FileMaker, Inc. “With a little advance planning and the Bento 4 Christmas Kit, you can be prepared for the busy Christmas season ahead – and have fun doing it.”
