We are thrilled to announce the official release of RootsMagic 8, the latest version of the award-winning genealogy software which makes researching, organizing, and sharing your family history easy and enjoyable. With the release comes an update to the free \u201cRootsMagic Essentials\u201d product, as well as a limited-time discount offer for both new and existing users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Built For the Future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

RootsMagic 8 is the biggest release in our 30-year history. We\u2019ve rewritten RootsMagic to support the latest genealogical technologies available today while building a foundation for future functionality that would have been impossible with our older code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Impressive New Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

RootsMagic 8 boasts an impressive list of new features including an all-new interface that supports easily switching between different types of information without losing your place, the ability to edit multiple persons at the same time, native Windows and Mac support, reusable citations, a completely rewritten report engine, and the ability to save reports directly to Word (.docx) or Excel (.xlsx) files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other exciting new features include fan charts, streamlined search capabilities, an enhanced person editing experience, and a powerful new task management system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
