Amazon.com Review:
The Master Genealogist Gold Edition is a tool for anyone interested in researching their family tree and a means of organizing the reams of information as it comes to light. In addition to bringing one-click indexing to the heretofore confused mass of birth, death, and marriage entries, this program will help users publish their findings, either at home or on the Web. Unlike other genealogy packages that come with CD after CD of research data, TMG is comparatively spare, offering a single disk of glossaries and bibliographies as well as access to an online resource database. Where this package has the edge is in its capacity to organize a family history into coherent and readable reports. TMG will import data from a variety of formats, including other genealogy packages, and turn it into beautifully laid-out trees, charts, and graphs. This data can be exported in HTML code, allowing for convenient presentation online.

It is important to note that this Gold Edition of The Master Genealogist is a reissue of a 1999 package. In computer terms, this makes the program rather elderly. Though this version has some Web-friendly features added into its mix, it is prone to glitches, particularly during installation. Its interface is on the clunky side and may frustrate users who are still learning the ins and outs of Windows. A lengthy examination of the manual is a must for learning to use anything but the simplest TMG features. On the other hand, this program will run on a very modest computer system, and its reports are well worth examining. Well laid out and easy to read, they are the centerpiece of a hard-working tool designed to change your family lore from a pile of clippings and photographs to a coherent--and intriguing--story. --Alyx Dellamonica

- Don't buy it
I haven't even bought the software yet and am flabbergasted out how NON-EXISTENT their service is. First of all nobody that answers their 800# knows a thing about the software...then they will give you a long distance number to dial.

Now, normally a Friday morning is not a peak time for service questions - but I dialed 8 times and never even got an answer! The phone will ring about 50 times and then it just disconnects you! I have decided with that kind of service (for software that ... Read More

- So Much Potential...
I thought the latest release would have addressed the critical design faults in previous versions, but they remain; the design of the software is so complicated that it burdens even a configuration which can handle almost anything I throw at it.

I can certainly see the potential for TMG to be vastly superior to any other product in the genre, but at the end of the day, I will always favour a succinct and unencumbered design.

Configuration: version 5.11; Windows XP; P4 2.6GHz; 1GB ... Read More

- User-Friendly? What's User Friendly?
When I purchased TMG, I underestimated the complaints about this being a difficult program to use. After all, I teach computers. I have mastered many, many types of software. I was already using genealogical software, and found it too simple. The problem isn't, however, that TMG is difficult because it is so powerful or because the task is so complex. This program is difficult to use because it is poorly designed.

I bought this program because they offered so much information. They ... Read More

- The best genealogy program on the market
The Master Genealogist (TMG) is far and away the best genealogy program on the market. Having used four competitors' programs previously including the top selling program, I feel qualified to recommend it to every serious genealogist. TMG's handling of research sources and infinite capability for properly citing information are tops. Data entry is easily understood. The learning curve is a little longer than other programs because the user has more control over input and output. Once a user becomes familiar ... Read More

- There was a new download only version 5.0 released in May
The version for sale here appears to be 4.0 which has been around for years and is somewhat outdated. I bought the new 5.0 version of this program recently and really like it although the learning curve is fairly steep and for the truly serious genealogy enthusiast. The new version is not complete yet but has most features working and is available only by downloading the program and there is no manual yet. The program CD will be available sometime in the future with a manual and that is included in the price ... Read More
