Comments and Reviews
I absolutely love this software. I have always found it to be stable. There are so many different ways to analyze and view your tree, it's great! I can easily setup accounts for my family members who also want to view or contribute to the tree.
As a data privacy advocate I love that I can have a self-hosted alternative to data mining services like Ancestry.
Excellent genealogy software. Good support.
