    3. Reunion has not had an upgrade for, seemingly, a long time. So as the Mac OS marches forward, Reunion might become too old. I have 9 and haven't opened it in years. I was not enamored with its charting options. I wanted it to branch backward along my four grandparents roots - like a 'me' on top pyramid.

For a while I kept my tree updated on FTM, Reunion 9, and GeditcomIII until I made up my mind which I like best. Each one handles a certain task better than the other but all three had shortcomings. > > FTM and Reunion are my favorites and I decided on FTM solely because of the automatic synch facility with my tree on Ancestry.com. There are times when the "hints" are a pain but I have also found quite a few relatives with almost no search time. > > The main "shortcoming" I had trouble with was handling families with more than one spouse.
