Favmily Tree Maker (2009-10-05)
I have used Family Tree Maker for years and needed a newer version for a new computer.


It saved my materials (2009-09-26)
It saved my materials that I worked on for years. It's not exactly the same, but similar enough that I can work with it & says it has some new features. Haven't had a chanceto really check that out yet.


Family Tree Maker 2009 is worthless. (2009-09-03)
I AM A SERIOUS GENEALOGIST, I HAVE OVER 22,000, NAMES IN MY DATABASE....I HAVE BEEN USING, "FTM", 2005, AND ALSO, "FTM" 2006...THEY ARE BOTH GOOD PRODUCTS... "THE "GEEKS", AT "FTM",HAD THE GOLDEN GOOSE..BUT THEY KILLED IT WITH "FTM" 2009...THE "LOOK", AND FUNCTION OF "FTM" 2009, MAKE IT WORTHLESS....I BOUGHT IT, AND INSTALLED IT...THEN WHEN I SAW WHAT THEY HAD DONE, I DELEATED IT, AND WENT BACK TO "FTM" 2005....I EMAILED THEIR "TECH'S", AND TOLD THEM WHAT I THOUGHT OF THEIR NEW VERSION..ALL YOU HAVE TO DO, IS "GOOGLE", "FAMILY TREE MAKER 2009", AND I THINK YOU WILL FIND THAT THERE IS A LOT OF ANGER ABOUT THIS PRODUCT...IF YOU INSTALL IT ON YOUR COMPUTER, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACK-UP COPY OF YOUR DATA...ONCE YOU INSTALL IT ON YOUR MACHINE, THERE IS NO WAY TO CHANGE BACK TO THE OLD VERSION, WITHOUT DELETING THE ENTIRE "FTM" 2009 PROGRAM, AND ALL YOUR DATA....YOU CAN THEN DO A NEW INSTALL OF THE OLD VERSION YOU WERE USING, AND THEN RE-LOAD THE DATA, FROM YOUR BACK-UP DISC....I WILL SAY THIS AGAIN, THIS PRODUCT IS WORTHLESS...DO NOT BUY IT...!!!!


Great Product (2009-09-01)
This is a great product. It's very thorough - allows you to enter step-children, adopted children and various other kinds of relatives as well as blood relatives. My husband has already entered over 1,000 people in our family tree. Once you start entering people it just keeps expanding. What fun!


easy to use (2009-09-01)
I'm no computer expert and certainly not geneology savvy but Family Tree Maker made inputting all my ancestry info easy and quick. THe book helps alot, but the screens were common sense to navigate around in. I printed many of the family tree formats and lists and now have fabulous information to share with my family! Easy for beginners! Nancy Bensimon
