Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Roots Magic genealogy software
Seems to work fine. Was able to load large pre-existing genealogy file. Some trouble between GEDCOM file codes used by Family Tree Maker, but not recognized by Roots Magic. It will take some hand editing to fix that. Caught by Roots Magic, but another good reason to abandon Family Tree Maker which has tied itself to unacceptible, unwanted, uneeded, Internet connections. Quick delivery of the CD directly from the source company.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - fantastic genealogy software
I've had this software for quite a while now and find it to be the best genealogy program that I have used. I abandoned Family Tree Maker in favor of trying this product. It's a meat and potatoes program that you will not regret trying.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Truly it is Magic
I was advised to purchase this program by a seasoned genealogist. It has a multitude of features, some of which I have not had experience with as of yet.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A genealogy program with the historian in mind
I have been doing genealogy for over 15 years, and started out with very rudimentary versions of Family Tree Maker. I was never happy with FTM's management of sources -- it seemed to be much more interested in how to make things "pretty" and sources, the heart and soul of real genealogy, always got short shrift.

Then, some years ago, I switched to Heritage Family Tree. I loved this program, even though it could be quite klunky in many ways and the charting software that came with the program ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - roots magic program review
I have used an earlier version of this software and this revision is an improvement both in detail entry and ease of use. With its GEDCOM compatibility, this program is sufficient for the average person to trace ancestral lineage and record details including photographs and relevant documentation. It's capability to track details encourages users to obtain information from elders before they pass on, including who is who in the box of old photographs commonly found in homes.
