August 13, 2009 --Corporate Network Services, a FileMaker Business Alliance Platinum member with 15 years experience, announced today at the FileMaker Developers Conference in San Francisco that its FileMaker group has been spun out into a new division called Anvil Dataworks.

Anvil Dataworks (www.anvildataworks.com) brings craftsmanship to the FileMaker community through development expertise and dedication to all that is FileMaker. “The division was spun out from Corporate Network Services to give FileMaker users and developers an improved experience, as well as allow our developers to focus on their core abilities,” explained Karen Kalantzis, CEO.

Anvil Dataworks provides FileMaker development, support, training classes, and software licensing. Senior Developer Chuck Melton will continue to offer expertise with Project Management, Information Dashboards and Business Process Reviews, while Sameer Khan, Authorized Trainer, will continue to delight students i n his classrooms. The entire Anvil Dataworks development team, based in Maryland, is certified in version 10 and works with customers across the United States, and even travels internationally for deployments and training projects.

A key component of Anvil Dataworks’ mission is to develop a community of FileMaker users. Based on the already strong DC FileMaker Users group, Anvil Dataworks hopes to extend this community nationwide through its new blog (www.anvildataworks.com/blog) and its increased social networking through Twitter (@DCFileMaker). Indeed, the Anvil Dataworks’ coming out party will be held at the first annual DevCon FMTweetUp.

To celebrate the new division, the company is offering free development time or discounts on training classes. Visit www.anvildataworks.com/offer for details on the promotion.
