Customer Reviews
First there are not big changes from the privous versions. The only reason I bought it was for the time lines on the maps. It is a particular intrest to me and so worth the upgrade. Otherwise I'm not sure why you would upgrade if you had a recent version of the software. If you have a intrest in building and resarching your family tree then I would recommend this software. It works very well and intgrates very well with the web site. One wish was that you could do direct updates from web site to offline version and back again easily. As it is you have to export or import a file of your tree. Don't get me wrong it is not in any way hard to do but I would expect a one button approch in this day. For me it is important to have a offline verison safe of my tree which has taken a year of work to create. I can't imagin what I would do if the website crashed. Beyond that there are some things that this software does better then the online site. Printing is the first thing that comes to mind. In summary if you already have a version, then think hard about the upgrade before parting with your money. Maybe wait a while untill the cost comes down. If you have no version then you should get one as a backup to your online version. In that case you could get an older version a lot cheaper. But what ever you do this software does work well and so you not regreat buying it.
Very excited to upgrade from FTM 2005 to 2011, however somewhat disappointed with the product. First of all the appearance, although a contemporary look, is much more difficult to navigate compared to 2005. Family members appear as just another data field rather than the unique page per person in 2005 and when you select individual it squeezes all known data on to one page. Surely Ancestry must realise their audience tends to be slightly older than the ipod generation and prefer slighly bigger fonts and a degree of simplicity.
I was anticipating great things with the maps function but my first street name (Dudley St, Paddington) was inaccurate, FTM2011 uses microsoft "Bing" which shows incorrect street names (try it then compare to Google maps) I've been to Dudley St and know Google is correct. Nearly every location I have was unrecognised by Bing and I now need to "resolve" my place names to suit the Software, 644 of them (which can't be right).
Overall I would say if you haven't used any previous product then it's okay but if you have then I wouldn't recommend it (yet), although I have received an update which fixes some bugs.
