From glancing over these, I guess it would be how you set it up and use it.
Our FilemakerPro system we have set up does everything that Robert Baron
classifies as collection management.  We have all object tracking items in
place, condition tracking, exhibit / loan tracking, etc.

One thing I like about using FilemakerPro is that we can change it and adapt
it to our needs, which is much more flexible than a package system.
