Family Tree Maker - Up To Version 16 Review by Carol Librarian, Sep 2, 2018
Family Tree Maker, since this is an old program, doesn't have a copy of it even on a dusty old corner shelf. I didn't like the new platform that was offered recently. I had tried it and found that I would have to re-learn how to add information; being almost done with 4 sides of the family, I decided that I'd rather stick with what I know and like. Family Tree Maker Deluxe Edition v16 is the #1 bestselling resource to create your family tree. It takes just three steps. First, use information you already know. With access to over 5 billion records, you’ll be able to find all the details. Browse family+tree+maker+16+download+free on sale, by desired features, or by customer ratings.

Family Tree Maker (FTM) has been through more than a few twists and turns over the last year. In Dec 2015, Ancestry announced that it would no longer sell or support its popular genealogy program and many thought FTM was done for. Shortly after, however, it was announced that Software MacKiev, the maker of Family Tree Maker’s Mac version, would be taking over the program.

Versions and dates and other ways of identifying Family Tree Maker software is confusing! I wish developers (and Family Tree Maker in particular) had a consistent way of dating and giving version numbers to their editions. Magazines have issue/volume numbers and dates and so do serial books. Why can’t software ?
I’ve been using Family Tree Maker when it first came out. It was easy to use up to version 16. I wanted/needed the latest FTM version for Windows 10. When I went from FTM ver.16 to installing FTM ver. 22 (2014) —- I lost, or version 22 did not import, all of my NOTES! Version 22 was a big visual/logical clutter. Many times I think software is updated with big changes to justify charging more money and to market the upgrade with useless but luring talking points.
I spent many years collecting information and want software I can trust. The trend is for everything to go online, but I want my information safe, private and on my computer. I want reliable software on my computer and not in the clouds.
I was upset and very frustrated with FTM Ver. 22 (2014) and decided give FTM ver.16 a try on Windows 10.
BIG SURPRISE — I Just discovered my Windows 10 with latest updates (as of 9-2-2018) will run FTM Ver. 16! I now have my NOTES back.
P.S. I used the same file for both software versions but FTM ver. 22 did not import my Notes.
