Customer Reviews

Best Macintosh Genealogy Software. Get it!
I've used Reunion since version 6, I think, and it is the best genealogy software I've ever used. I've tried Family Tree Maker on Windows and Reunion blows it away. FTM is just ugly, where Reunion has a nice interface and is easy to use. You can export your family tree to the GEDCOM standard and upload it to Geni.com, or import your old Windows family tree file into Reunion, though you'll have to import all the media files separately, as GEDCOM doesn't seem to support media.

I considered other Mac genealogy programs, but decided to stick with Reunion. One of the great things about this software is the fantastic personal support that leister.com gives you. BTW, this is a universal app, in case you're wondering. A lot of genealogy applications seem to be lagging behind in that respect.

All in all, I consider this the best genealogy software available, on mac or Windoze. You can't go wrong with Reunion!

It's 2009 now, and I've owned this application for quite some time, and I still agree with my review. Get this software! You won't regret it!

Reunion 9, Geneology Software
This is as superb as they come. Excellent graphing choices, Family tree generation and lists of all sources. Provides ability to move, edit, change all data entries as the user desires. Great facility in moving relatives within the tree as facts emerge.

There is simply no competition.
The absolute king of genealogy and "family tree" software. The best feature I've discovered so far is the ability to export your entire family tree as a series of web pages that Reunion will create and customize for you, in both plain HTML and CSS formats. Simply export and upload to your web space, and voila. There are a handful of free options out there, but they are mostly feature-starved and buggy. For a meager 99 dollars, Reunion blows them all out of the water.
