Guide

How to choose family history software for a real family research project.

A family research system should do more than store names. It should protect privacy, track sources, organize uploads, and support review before facts become official.

Private rooms

Each family needs a separate workspace with controlled member access.

Evidence workflow

Leads, questions, and unverified claims should stay separate from confirmed records.

Document handling

Uploads need a review queue, not just a file dump.
