The steering wheel is always in the same place windows sit atop doors. It seems to be most popular and Bruce Buzbee, the creator, is quite accessible.Īll are similar to cars though. If I were a Windows user looking for genealogy software today I would probably go for RootsMagic.

I have used PAF, Family Roots by Quinsept, Roots III (my all time favorite), Family Tree Maker, and Legacy Family Tree in the past. I only got my first Mac about 5 years ago. I am using Reunion 12 and like it very much. WOW! You can read the manual, but reading how others use certain fields or reading what how they want to input something is fascinating as I keep learning more and more about this program and how to use it! I switched to Legacy from Family Tree Maker over 15 years ago and have sampled a couple other programs, before I made the switch. There are many fun features that I cannot think off as I have been using the program for years and probably don’t even realize what I take for granted anymore! There are designated spots to put in your Find-A-Grave as well as Family Search ID Numbers so when you click on it, it opens right up to the page you want. Major upgrades occur every 3 or 4 years or so your wallet isn’t drained.

There are many free upgrades in between the major upgrades that cost money, so they are always keeping up on tweaks. I use Legacy Family Tree! There are many charts to tinker with and view your results as well as a pleasant look about it.
