For me is the best genealogical site on the web: easy to use - free download program for pc for create and sincronize a web family site - app for smartphone for join to site and modify it - share with your family member - everybody can share pictures, comments and events - search on the web.

I find My Heritage easy to use (more so than another genealogy program I have used) and the support when I have had questions or the rare problem has been very good.

I gave it four stars instead of five as it sometimes takes a little time to add information after clicking the plus sign. This may be due to connection issues or even my own computer - it may not be the fault of My Heritage at all.

I have found this website easy to use and would definitely recommend it.The myheritagesupport team have been exceptionally helpful with a recent problem I had after my computer broke down. Lots of data missing and unable to log in.
Sent an explanatory email to the support team and, hey presto, problem solved. I am very grateful to have my family tree details restored.

Have a ******* person in a Family tree from My Heritage and used it Several years. Now it happened a brake when uploading Syncing the tree´s. Heart attach was near. When looked on the Site I couldn't find my tree. Gone... tried several time, no, no success. Write a mail for help... After a short time got a mail to try again. Then have succeeded to upload a new tree... now its quite okay... thought it was something which stopped the upload because of the old tree was corrupt. They fixed it and don´t now what happened. But therefor I have several copies on my computers... Its only frustrating when it happened and the time to fix a new again... Its much work behind the tree and every time then thinking of to have to do it again. Thanks for all help and in so short time... thanks from all of my heart

Myheritage brings 2 long lost cousins together in Paris.
My Kishinevsky family tree has been on myheritage.com for about a year. I recently decided to contact other Kishinevskys on myheritage to try and find long-lost cousins. Someone I contacted referred me to a cousin they knew who lived in Paris, but whose family came from Bendery, a hop, skip and a jump from Tiraspol, where my family came from. Last Monday at the IAJGS conference, Jacques Kishinevsky and I met to examine photos and documents and to tell family stories. We spent 2 hours talking, me with my rusty French and a lot of body English. We can't prove with a paper trail that we are related, but I will call him cousin anyway. Being able to make this connection means a lot to me -- thank you, MyHeritage!

They hold your details as it is a family tree. For me they are holding too many details none of which i gave them. I have asked them more than once to remove the surplus details but up to now they have either refused or now they ignore my emails.
