What is Heredis?


Last month I received a free offer of a copy of the Heredis genealogy software. I have tried various genealogy programs over the years, and I was willing to try this one. Importing a gedcom took longer than other programs, and it didn't display the photos (although it did find them). The next day I explored it some more and easily set it to display the photos. This is something that it does very nicely, as you can see. On the left are quick links to relationships. On the right is the all-person index and the search form. On a wider screen it would probably look even better.
