Excellent Software Good Value
SkizzlesJanuary 3, 2010
Pros
This software produces excellent genealogy reports. Has lots of options on what data to include or exclude. I have purchased it and would do so again no hesitation.
Cons
The GUI is a bit Neanderthal. This aspect of the program is not good; it does not "flow" well and for some that may be an issue. However under the hood this baby rocks.
Summary
The bottom line is that this is software I would not go without; it does a good job with reports. If you take ten minutes to figure it out -- it is easy to use. Gui wise it is a dinosaur? I would like a more flashy and flowing GUI; However that is a minor feature compare to functionality. The program Rocks!
it was worth a try
