WinFamily is a windows based family history and family
tree software package. This software is advertised as the
perfect balance between the ease needed to support a
novice genealogist, and the professional tools needed to
appeal to a professional family history researcher. While
we were impressed by some of the features on WinFamily,
nothing we saw could really justify the cost of the
software. At $119 this software is the most expensive we
have reviewed in this category, and despite a slick
appearance and good complement of features, we just
couldn't see anything that justified such a high price
tag. Users can try out WinFamily with no obligation using
the free trial, downloadable from the WinFamily
website.
WinFamily provides its users with a collection of useful
tools and features intended to make the process of
creating a family tree both more fun and simpler. Users
can design their family tree to suit their particular
needs, choosing which direction the tree travels in and
what form it takes. WinFamily also supports 5 different
languages, and any one tree can contain data entered in
any of the supported language characters. Users can
export their creations as PDFs or GEDCOM files or simply
print them for framing or distribution to friends and
family. While all of these features are great, we really
can't spot anything particularly original, or (perhaps
more importantly) anything that warrants paying such a
high price.
As we have already indicated, WinFamily is extremely
expensive when compared to other software packages that
we have reviewed in this category. We would advise all
users to check out what WinFamily has to offer using the
free trial before purchasing the software, as it's highly
likely that they can get the same features elsewhere for
a fraction of the cost. One great feature about the free
trial is, even after it has expired (21 days), users can
export their research from the WinFamily trial in GEDCOM
format to use elsewhere. This means that, even if you
don't decide to go ahead with WinFamily, you don't lose
all of your research. Hit the link below to check out
what exactly WinFamily is offering for such a hefty price
tag, or if you want to look elsewhere, why not try one of
the higher rated software packages in this category, such
as Family Tree Maker?
