  Content: I have used older versions of Family Tree Maker for years and liked it. I decided that with a newer version I would take advantage of the on-line features offered. I ran into trouble when I tried to register the product. I finally called the telephone number provided for support and found that the company that bought Broderbund does not provide support for this version, only the new versions. They did not want to talk to me once they found I was using a brand new copy of Version 11. Because I could not even register the product, I cannot use any of the on-line features. It works just fine for building a family tree, but I thought I paid for more than that.
  Summary: No Support for Version 11

  Content: This software ROCKS. I spent 20 years trying to find any evidence of my Gr-grGrandfather. I bought this software to help me maintain my files and I was able to find my lost ancestor with a Search. I now have charted close to 85% of my Family since the arrival of the Original Emmigrant from France. I highly recommend this software to anyone.

  Content: I have used Family Tree Maker software for 10 years or so now. It is a very intuitive piece of software that has evolved over the years. Even if you are brand new to genealogy, you can get started with this product. Don't count on the CDs to be your gold mine to your family history. If you are looking for your history, start asking questions of your family now. Start researching on www.rootsweb.com now. Be patient...developing a tree can take a while unless its already documented somewhere.

  Do you really need the expensive collection package? probably not....but you can start recording little bits of info even with the basic package of FTM.
  Summary: Easy to use software....
