ITS Software Services also coordinates a maintenance renewal every 3 years for university units separate from UmichITAM. The next renewal is scheduled for June 2023. Units with existing maintenance agreements previously renewed through Software Services will be notified and given the opportunity to renew. These units with active maintenance also have access to FileMaker Server at no cost and can request a server license key from Software Services.

Those who do not buy maintenance through Software Services can work with Software Services to co-term their maintenance agreements and join the large renewal that occurs every 3 years.

New license purchases are referred to CDW-G, the strategic supplier in M-Marketsite for FileMaker products.
