Review to a search for family
July 1, 2025

I found lots of family from the past. There's just one thing I found out. Be very carefull with copying what other found out in their search. Often people with same names are mentioned in the searchlist, even with comparable birthdates, but some are no family at all

MyHeritage is a great genealogy-program.
July 1, 2025

I appreciate working in MyHeritage as it helps me to manage my "paper-genealogy" and all DNA-tools from one and the same account. I even appreciate that I can manage all DNA-kits in the same account.
The pedigree-surface is easy to navigate and it's easy to make changes there. I even enjoy the DNA-tools. I mostly filter DNA-matches according to smartmatches, sometimes even by shared surnames. I would appreciate if I even could filter DNA-matches by shared places (towns, villages).

Disappointing résults
July 1, 2025

The resultats are succinct and have thaught me nothing. No site source. The marketing " attached" to this genealogical research seems to take priority once you're identified!

Stamboomonderzoek wordt goed ondersteund
July 1, 2025

Mijn stamboomgegevens worden overzichtelijk bewaard. Ik krijg regelmatig goede 'smart matches'. Mijn enige kritiekpunt betreft de 'instant discoveries'. Deze bevatten veel te veel onzinplaatjes, van die kinderlijke plaatjes die mensen toevoegen aan hun stamboom en daarmee serieuze onderzoekers met troep opzadelen. Daarom wijs ik de meeste instant discoveries af.

Great for new researchers
July 1, 2025

I started with a gedcom files created from files that no errors. Once upon loaded. I was told there were 100s of inconsistencies. Most of the problems were dates that transferred partially or just plain wrong. I notified My Heritage but never got a response. The problem has grown as information has come from other sources..

Meine git 40Tausen Objekte in MyHeritage
July 1, 2025

- Record Matches funktionieren sehr gut.
- Smart Matches haben Herausforderungen. Gerade in der App, wenn man den ablehnen möchte.
- Die Synchronisierungen führen oft zu mehrfachen Objekten die sich weder in der App noch auf der Online Plattform merchen (zusammenführen) kann. Das ist ein riesen Problem!

Overal voor betalen
July 1, 2025

Voorheen kon je als je een gratis account had, andere eigenaren van stambomen een verzoek sturen tot toegang. Als je dat nu doet, kom je altijd bij een lidmaatschap uit. Zonder een abonnement kun je kennelijk niet meer dat soort verzoeken sturen en dat vind ik niet kunnen. Immers, het zijn stamboomonderzoekers die al het werk verrichten en jullie faciliteren alleen middels jullie platform. Moeten de abonnementskosten dan zo verschrikkelijk hoog zijn terwijl al het werk vóór jullie gedaan wordt?

Lost memories found in MyHeritage.
July 1, 2025

I have a good experience working with my Heritage. I can find everything about my family and set up a pedigree.
Very interesting is to see that my family has interfaces with other family, that you would not expect. Very interesting and surprising.

Goede hulp door MyHeritage
July 1, 2025

De hulp is perfect maar te snel en teveel. Ik wil niet elke dag aan een stamboom werken. Mijn email box zit propvol van MyHeritge.

Investigation and findings.
July 1, 2025

When I started to investigate my family tree(s) I was astonished to see how far I could go back. There is a lot of information on the site and when you put a family member's name in your tree, there may be soon a warning that other members of MH also have this person in their tree and probably with more members you did not even know that they existed. And so you help each other.
