Don't waste your money!! Don't waste your money!!! Some people have to follow the rules while others don't. I have been a paying member since 2018 and am not renewing. Customer service allows the same person to create duplicates and not add any information but then they become a manager of that profile. I now have family that have children before they were even born or spouses added that are not correct and data conflicts all over the place because of this person. Customer service is a joke!!

no free customer support, costs $100 Has no customer support to call if you lose account access. Has ability to email a support team, but only if you purchase a $100 annual membership.

The worst of all of the sites I've tried The worst of all of the sites I've used. They constantly try to force you to use a flash interface. You can't import a GEDCOM file unless you pay because whilst it looks like you can if there are any kind of matches you cannot continue to import unless you decline or accept the matches which you can only do if you pay. It's almost impossible to use unless you want to allow them to use device fingerprinting. If you use any kind of privacy tool the site breaks. Practically any link or button you click leads to a promo to upgrade. The interface is ridiculous many buttons link to a different site with what appears no reason. Clicking on matches stays on geni.com clicking on smart matches in the same location leads to myheritage and it's not clear how these are linked or if it will update geni.com When you try to use help you also get redirected to a page that exclaims "Special Offer: Try Geni Pro for free!" So you have to sign up for support, you have to sign up to import, you have to sign up if you click a button or a link. You also need to sign up if you want to report a bug. This site is basically just one big promo to sign up for a service that still relies on flash.

Geni is what you may be searching for Geni is an incredible company. Their website is pretty old and rusty by now and not much have changed throughout the last years. But the Geni community is what makes Geni a fierce competitor and a great genealogy site. But all features of the Geni tree are working well and probably the best on the market. Since Geni offers a Wikipedia like approach and many unique ways of displaying information. The staff of Geni are also very supportive and will do much to satisfy their users. A symbiotic relationship is what you will find if you hop on Geni!
