Why Sync with Google Contacts?

Syncing your FileMaker contacts with Google makes them portable, so that you can work with your FileMaker contacts in Google, in the iPhone's address book, and in the Mac Address Book application.

When you add or edit a contact in one of these applications, Zulu syncs that edit with your FileMaker database.

For the first time, you can have one contact list, based in FileMaker, and accessible on your mobile devices.

How it Works

After adding Zulu to your contacts file, you'll map a FileMaker account with a Google account and then Zulu will sync any contacts that account sees with the contact list for that Google account. Zulu uses a simple "last edit wins" rule for reconciling conflicts and can be set to sync automatically, so there are no FileMaker scripts to write or run. Zulu takes care of it.
