One of the BIGGEST genealogy scams on… One of the BIGGEST genealogy scams on the internet. I had no idea when I uploaded my tree that Geni allows others to make changes to it; others that are actually so far out related, they really know nothing about my family. Don't upload your tree! They allow others to make changes to it, and apparently, you can never delete it. Be aware that you can't delete your data!!!

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.

Geni is one big cash grab Geni literally promotes itself as having one family tree that connects all of humanity, but to be able to join that one family tree, I have to purchase a PRO subscription (costs $119.40 per year). Their business model is about PAYWALLING the ability the join the one family tree that it is famous for, effectively making it a CRIPPLEWARE. Their goal is to not help people explore their ancestors in one giant family tree, but rather gather as much REVENUE and PROFIT as they can. Geni is a CASH GRAB.

Unike Exelente customer service and good kvalité i think

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.
