This guide explains accessing the free trial version of FileMaker 2026. It is intended for general users.
You can access your aACE Discovery system in two ways: through a web browser or through the rich app on your workstation. Consult with your aACE Representative about the best method for your Discovery team.
Using the rich app version of aACE 6 will require installing FileMaker 2026. If you do not have FileMaker 2026 installed, Claris offers a free 45-day trial. Do not sign up for the trial until your team is ready to begin testing aACE.
- Go to the Claris FileMaker website*.
- Select Try FileMaker.

- Enter your business email.

- Enter your name and additional company information.
- Select Get free trial.
- Select the Download trial dropdown, then select the appropriate version of FileMaker Pro for your workstation.

- Run the downloaded installer and follow the instructions for installation.
Once you have FileMaker 2026 installed, you can use the aACE system launcher provided by your aACE Representative. You can then explore the system and complete tasks for your Discovery process.
