Genealogy Books - Family Tree Maker 10

Customer Rating:

Summary: Generations Family Tree by Broderbund is a better choice.
Comment: Family Tree Maker is an okay genealogy program. For the very novice or someone that needs an
extremely simple format for inputting - this one's for you. Otherwise for beginner's and experts
alike, get Generations Family Tree (now distributed by Broderbund). The charts and family group
sheets are easier to use and have superior results compared to Family Tree Maker. Don't go for the
"deluxe" versions, the extra discs of "information" contains very little useful data - plus the same
information can be readily found on the internet. I've been using genealogy programs for the last 5
years and have tried several. It's too bad that Broderbund bought Generations (from Sierra Home
software) and won't promote it - as it's a better product over their Family Tree Maker.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Deceptive Advertising
Comment: The CDs containing "1100 Years of History" of searchable information are nothing more than an index
of available CDs for sale by the vendor.

The vendor also invites you to include your family tree
in the "world family tree". However, access to the "world family tree" requires a paid
subscription.

The program itself is not bad, but I object to the deceptive advertising.
