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. We’ve 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. RootsMagic 8 is the biggest release in our 30-year history. The following is the announcement from the RootsMagic Blog: Built For the Future


With the release comes an update to the free “RootsMagic Essentials” product, as well as a limited-time discount offer for both new and existing users. The few people I have talked with who have already upgraded to the new release all were very enthusiastic about the new features. RootsMagic users have waited a long time for version 8 but now that it is available, early reports from users indicate it was well worth the wait.
