Moving to the Ottomatic FileMaker Hosting Platform

At SeedCode, building rich relationships with our clients is essential to the success of everything we do. We know that when our clients thrive, we thrive, so choosing the right technology partners is critical.

One of the best decisions we’ve made has been migrating our clients to Ottomatic, the award-winning FileMaker hosting platform by Proof+Geist.

Proof+Geist’s reliable infrastructure has transformed the way our clients experience hosting, virtually eliminating frustrations and downtime that can plague other FileMaker environments. The result? Our clients can stay focused on running their businesses without worrying about technical roadblocks. We’d love to share two recent success stories that demonstrate the impact of this collaboration on our customers and our team.

The Rachman Clinic: A Seamless Transition to Reliable Hosting

The Rachman Clinic is a thriving functional medicine practice, providing integrative care to hundreds of patients. Their operations—covering everything from patient scheduling and medical records to billing and patient portals—are powered by a custom FileMaker solution built around Dr. Rachman’s unique business model.

Like many organizations, the clinic’s growth meant that downtime and system inconsistencies were becoming critical pain points. To address these challenges, we migrated their system to Ottomatic, ensuring smoother, more reliable operations moving forward.

Dr. Brad Rachman shared his experience:

“Thank you all again for your diligence and for managing the migration as smoothly as possible. We had only one small issue, which was easily corrected. I really believe this is a small hurdle compared to what we could have encountered with a more complex migration.”

This transition has given our client continued confidence in the choices we make at SeedCode, and the reliability of their environment. And it’s made their solution easier to work on and customize. This allows them to focus on patient care without worrying about technical interruptions.

Financial Services Client: Stability at Scale with Custom Hosting Solutions

One of our long-term clients in the financial services industry relies on a highly customized solution to run all their operations. However, their legacy on-premise server setup was becoming a bottleneck–even though it was once state of the art with a hot swap standby server and redundant backup locations. As our client grew, the server’s reliability placed a significant strain on both our team and theirs.

Moving to the Ottomatic hosting platform proved to be a game-changer. Their redundant backup solutions and flexible hosting options allowed us to deliver the stability our client required—and then some.

Nick Farnan, Lead Developer at SeedCode, shares the impact:

“We tested out Proof+Geist’s hosting, and the difference was night and day. We’ve had virtually no downtime since the migration, and the team at Proof+Geist has been fantastic to work with. Our client required a highly complex hosting configuration, and Proof+Geist was incredibly accommodating in setting it up. They’ve been an absolute godsend for us and our client.”

By teaming up with Proof+Geist and hosting on Ottomatic, we’ve not only reduced our own workload but also given our clients the tools they need to scale confidently. Working with the right partner makes all the difference, and we couldn’t be happier with the results.
