Managing the data that’s generated by 300 domestic and 30 overseas talent auditions daily is a monumental task for Berklee College of Music’s admissions staff. At any given time the college has 80 faculty and 40 staff members on the road interviewing and auditioning roughly 7,000 promising musicians annually around the world. Up until two years ago the group lugged around laptops that stored the input, comments, and decisions, then later fed information into the Boston-based school’s Filemaker Go database.
