I’ve been using FTM from the early editions and upgrading with each new edition. It is
easy to use, and accommodates most of my family history needs. I’d recommend it. However,
my suggestion would be to call FTM to find out how you can convert your current old
edition FTM files to their latest edition to help you decide if you want to use FTM or
another software.

Hi All,
My family history work has been on the back burner for some years
now, and my Family Tree Maker software was somewhat aged before that
point. I think it was the first version on CD.
Having recently been sent a large Gedcom, I rather feel that the time
has come for an update. I note that FTM is still going strong, with
several versions to choose from, and would be interested in any comments.
Should I stay with FTM (and which version should I consider), or
there something much better now?
I will have a need to import the old files, I suspect that the
current version may not open the old file format, but would welcome
suggestions if anyone has tried it.
Cheers
Malcolm
