iFamily for Leopard Review by Guy Holmes,  Feb 20, 2013

I moved to this program 4 or 5 years ago when I moved to the Mac from Windows. I really love it - It makes sense, you don’t need any manual, the basic diagrams and PDF’s it produces are great.

Very easy to navigate through and produce reports detailing any possible errors. Photos are also handled well

Biggest Pro: The Diagrams and PDF charts it can produce
Biggest Con: File structure of the saved folder isn’t very Mac like

I love iFamily for Leopard! Not only is it simple to use, it’s powerful as well. First, it’s visually stunning. On one diagram it shows everything you want to know about an individual: up to six generations of ancestors, a “stack” showing all siblings, their spouse(s), all their children, and even associated people (e.g. godparents). Second, it’s easy to navigate, add information, find information, and make changes. And third it’s powerful, including built-in data checkers (like finding duplicate people as you enter them), date sanity checks, and even place name formatting fixers. I count on these to keep me honest and consistent. I appreciate the enthusiastic community of iFamily supporters who post to the tips and information to the forums. Lastly, Warwick Wilson is done an exemplary job supporting and expanding the program. There’s a lot to love in iFamily!

Biggest Pro: Visual view of the individual and all of their relationships.
Biggest Con: Lacks some charts other programs have - though it makes stunning PDFs.

Simple to use and catches date inconsistencies that the other software overlooks.

Biggest Pro: Ease of use; data entry is a breeze.
Biggest Con: Could be easier to combine duplicates or people with different initials, name, etc.

Easy to use. Layouts are well made. For a private computer use, it is very good.

Biggest Pro: Ease of use. Reports are very good.
Biggest Con: Have to start a new tree to upload a GED com. No manual. Like Tribal pages just a little more..

I adore this program.i have been working on my family tree for about 12 years, initially starting with Family tree maker which I really liked. I changed from a windows to a MAC and had to start using Reunion for Mac, the Reunion program was awful I had been using for about 4 years and I detested it to the point that I no longer enjoyed genealogy. Finally i switched to ifamily for leopard and it was the best thing I did. I am in heaven. Its everything I could ask for. I LOVE IT

Biggest Pro: Its so easy to use, fabulous set up, made me fall in love with genealogy all over.
Biggest Con: None

This is the program that really developed my obsession with genealogy, but now find the support and improvements are sorely lacking. There’s an extremely loyal fan-base of users, but I am unfortunately predicting the end of an amazing program. The final frustration is that exporting data from iFamily into other applications seems sketchy, possibly because of all the great features added by its late developer. I wish, wish, wish iFamily still had the dedication and continued development it once did.

Biggest Pro: Ease of use, clarity
Biggest Con: help, updates

The developer has passed away and his son is now handling the program. This a really good program, but reports could be better. Newbies have to adjust to inputting information, especially if you have been using another program. There are not a lot of answers on the forum…seem to a lot more questions. I waited 2 weeks and never received a reply even from the developer. The developer, Warwick, is the only person who works on this program and he is everything to all people and doesn’t have time for anything because of this.

Biggest Pro: Nice layout, all around good program
Biggest Con: Help, charts

iFamily for Leopard Review by Bill Wilson,  Sep 26, 2008

Of the several genealogy applications I have tried, all for the Mac, iFamily is by far the best. It’s easy to understand and use, and if questions arise, developer Keith Wilson (no relation–that I know of) responds immediately and personally.

Biggest Pro: Ease of use
Biggest Con: Lack of a complete Help file, although the online forum and personal response from the developer almost make them unnecessary.
