The main screen includes both an ancestry chart and a separate details box for a selected individual, letting you enter information without losing sight of the big picture. That means you can concentrate on just a small section at a time without your other branches filling up the screen. The program also offers tools to view two family trees side by side so you can compare them before deciding if you want to merge them. Family Historian includes a dynamic mapping tool that not only lets you see where your ancestors were, but lets you color code them, zoom in and out, view all the events that happened at a particular location, and more.
Family Historian 6 also offers powerful tools for sharing your family tree with others in print or electronically. It includes about twice as many charts as Family Tree Maker, though not as many as Legacy 9, and they are not as artistic. The lack of backgrounds leaves Family Historian charts looking a little dull compared to other programs. The Family Historian website includes quick start guides and tutorials, but has a more limited online community compared to other products, especially Family Tree Maker.
On the other hand, because it is produced by a British company, the Family Historian community might be particularly helpful for those researching family roots in the United Kingdom. The program links directly with the MyHeritage and Findmypast websites, letting you easily locate information on your ancestors and download it directly into your family tree. However, unlike the other programs on our list, it does not include direct linking with Ancestry or FamilySearch.
Family Historian 6 is available from Amazon here. There is also a day free trial if you want to test it out before you buy. Also see RootsMagic 8 review. It offers all of the basics you need, plus some useful bonus features. This can make doing research on the road, at libraries, courthouses, or wherever, much easier, and lets you enter search results right away.
RootsMagic makes it simple to share your findings. Built-in tools help you create custom webpages, CDs, and DVDs, and offers plenty of print options as well. This program is one of the few that currently allows you to include same-sex marriages in your family tree, and can manage other complex relationships as well.
That can make it more frustrating for folks just starting out in genealogy. RootsMagic 7 works on the greatest range of operating systems of any of our picks, including every version of Windows since Windows and XP, and on Macs The RootsMagic website is more limited than most of the others. It does include some video tutorials and how-to guides, but not as much other support, and has a smaller user community.
RootsMagic 7 is able to connect and download directly from such sites as Ancestry, MyHeritage and FamilySearch, giving you access to a ton of online records and databases. Sharing your family tree with family, friends or anyone else is also easy, electronically or by print. They have double the number of charts that FTM has.
More so, they do not process DNA results currently. Family Historian 7 works on Windows Vista as well as 7 and up. Its website is filled with guides and tutorials, but its support community is less than its counterparts. More so, its producer is a British company, which is why it is found to be more helpful for those who are looking for their roots in the UK. It is linked with the databases of Findmypast and MyHeritage.
You can find the information about your ancestors on these sites and download them automatically to your family tree. It comes in a day trial version for free, so you can test it out for yourself before making a purchase. RootsMagic is less famous than its competitors but definitely not lagging behind with what it has to offer.
It has all the basics that genealogy research needs hand-in-hand with some really helpful add-ons. One of the powerful elements that the program has is allowing you to access multiple databases at the same time.
You will find this really useful when you need to do a comparison between databases as well as when copying information across them. It even has a drag-and-drop tool for moving people from a database to another. You can bring it with you and access the program anywhere and anytime.
You get to continue your research even while on the road, and you can access your updated information even when you are researching in other places like the library. You can come up with your very own webpages or keep the information on CDs or DVs. You also have the option to print them as you like. RootsMagic is also flexible enough to deal with complicated relationships.
It also belongs to the small group of programs that allow same-sex marriages. It does not offer as many chart options as its competitors, but you can create whatever reports you wish using its wide selection of options for doing so. It has a smaller community, which translates to lesser user support.
However, it comes with how-to video guides and tutorials. It is connected with Ancestry, FamilySearch, and MyHeritage, so you get access to quite a lot of databases and records online. You can use RootsMagic Essentials for as long as you like without any cost. It has all of the basic features of the software but not its best asset, which is the RootsMagic To-Go feature.
Among the five programs highlighted here, Family Tree Heritage is the least powerful because it lacks some of the features that the others have. However, it still has some unique options. With this program, you have access to clues on getting more from your research. It is also equipped with tools that allow the merging of two family trees, which lessens the time you need to use for doing crosschecks and finding any duplicate records.
The best thing about Family Tree Heritage is how changes can be done in bulk such as when you correct a wrongly-spelled word. It automatically fixes everywhere else the mistake has occurred. When it comes to charts and reports, it does produce easy-to-read ones quickly. However, they are not as aesthetically-pleasing and are quite limited.
It also has color coding and custom-tagging features for better organization. Unfortunately, it does not have an in-app browser, so you have to contend with going back and forth when looking up information online.
It is not supportive of same-sex marriages and does not have a mapping feature, so visual tracking of your ancestors is not possible.
