Legacy Family Tree Review by Paul Nichols, May 17, 2019
Legacy Family Tree Software & Books Note to current Legacy 9.0 customers: if you have already installed Legacy 9, you do not need to repurchase Legacy to update to the latest version. This is a free update which can be downloaded from here. Your Legacy Family Tree 9.0.0.269 download will start in a few seconds. Using warez version, crack, warez passwords, patches, serial numbers, registration.
Many reviews below indicate that Legacy Family Tree is powerful, fosters good practice, has excellent reports and charts. It also has the worst user interface of any program I have used this century.
It has no unicode support - which is a big problem if any of your ancestors are eastern european, for example. I have abandoned Legacy because this is not the only indication that the developers are either losing interest or totally overwhelmed.
Mapping needed to be changed because of the way the map provider - Bing - changed. This work was abandoned.
No attempt has been made to introduce Unicode support. It’s probably a few days work for a decent programmer.
Maintenance releases have come fewer, and much smaller - and yet there are bugs reported from years ago that are relatively minor and easily fixed. If they aren’t fixed it’s because there are too few staff, or the staff don’t try.
Now they have a server problem. Happens to everyone. But after TWO WEEKS it still isn’t fixed, and so lots of things don’t work right now. I can vividly recall being audited and told that my recovery plan for a 23-server mixed OS network was inadequate because it might take 4 days for the first functionality to be available. Two weeks is a ridiculous length of time, and even announcements have dried up.
My feeling is that Legacy has become very run-down; MyHeritage bought it but haven’t increased its resources to the level that gives some certainty that the software will be around in 5 years.
Biggest Pro: Makes it almost compulsory to be rigorous about the way data is handled and sourced.
Biggest Con: Seemingly near the end of its life.
