Hi, Is anyone using Legacy 4.0 genealogy software? If so do you like it? I have downloaded the standard version and it looks to have about everything one would want. The price is right also. To upgrade to the deluxe version is only $19.95 which unlocks a few features. Thanks Al Al White alwhite@comcast.net
Al: Hopefully you got some responses. So many people prefer Family Tree Maker that it has become the dominant software for building family trees. I am not a techie type and find FTM offers far more than what I need. They throw in the kitchen sink. I've suggested they have about three versions of the program. My message goes unheard. Now to your primary question about Legacy. While at a genealogy conference last spring, the person in charge gave me a free copy. Many people like the program so you won't go wrong with it. The "deluxe" version offers more choices but then it starts to approach FTM in goodies. If you want personalized service when you run into a problem with Legacy, the creator of the program is likely to respond along with others. They give you a help site to ask for assistance. Actually, I have not used my program as yet but am getting tempted with each passing day to shift to it. Maybe others out there have tried it and could offer suggestions. Legacy is fitted for GED so if you start with it and you don't like it, you can transfer the data to most other established software packages. One last point, many people start with one program to later learn they want additional or better features so don't be afraid to experiment with Legacy. Good luck with it.
