I use Legacy Deluxe version and find it very good.....used it for many years without issues. You can download the standard version free from:- http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/ Hope this helps?

Before I started on my research I looked at 6 different software packages. In the end and after two weeks of trialing them, I settled on Family Tree Maker.

It's really a matter of trail & error as SherlockBones says & of course personal preference...I too ran with a number of others before settling for Legacy......Good Luck with your choice elf  :)
