Issues Related to Changing Genealogical Software Products


By: Robert O. & Diane B. Pulse
In December 2013 It became necessary to change Software vendors from Family Tree Maker to another choice, The following is the process we went through to evaluate vendors and make that change

Plan: Use Delphi Research Method to evaluate options - panel of experts will primarely be individuals screened into "Technology for Genealogy" FaceBook group - Data collection period was from 12/6/2013 to 12/15/2013

Note: one software package "Legacy" had just released a new version, and the users were exploring the new features so the trafic for that package was up over normal.

 
Number of unique Individuals: 52 - 7 respond on 2 or more packages - one eliminated for bias, and not included in the 52
