This is a tree program rather than a research program I subscribe to 3 genealogy sites. This is my favourite "tree" site, better than Ancestry and Myheritage. It allows merging within your tree and others. They also give you hints to similar trees. It is best to consider it a non-research site and then you will not be disappointed.

Account deletion I had not used Geni.com for over 8-10 years so I decided to ask for it to be completely deleted including all the profiles I had set up. Their team was super quick in helping me achieve this. Thank you

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!

Think twice before investing in a DNA kit with Geni I have been a long time member of Geni.com, which is currently owned by the private company MyHeritage. Geni offers so-called MyHeritage DNA kits, and I bought one through MyHeritage. However, when I tried to upload my data to Geni, I received the message that DNA kits bought on MyHeritage cannot be uploaded on Geni. I am very disappointed, because DNA kits from other (external) companies like Family Tree DNA can be imported, but their own Myheritage DNA kits not. Other Genealogy companies like Geneanet DO offer the option to upload DNA from MyHeritage, AncestryDNA, Living DNA, etc... I have therefore decided to abandon my Geni & MyHeritage accounts, and to transfer all my data to Geneanet.

Speeds similar to dial-up circa 1995 I started a tree on the free version of Geni years ago but ignored it. Yesterday & today I began adding data and the site is extremely sluggish. Profiles won't open, pages freeze for more than 3 minutes, words typed in appear only after significant delay and the data isn't accepted by the site after lengthy 'processing' times. I tried over two days - 5 hours or so, but Geni is flat unusable. It's a shame because I like the interface, and I absolutely LOATHE Ancestry - who once tried to sell me my own images, the creeps. But if the 'lite' version of Geni is this bad, I def don't want to see the other side of the paywall.
