How to Sign in  Ancestry:- Website vs Program

 

 

One of the major distinctions between these two is, the fact that Ancestry is a web page. And Family Tree Maker is software.

 

Ancestry is an online website. Users can easily access it through a web browser. You can use any browser such as Mozilla, Chrome, Safari, or Microsoft Edge.

 

Family tree maker on the other hand is software that works over the computer system hard disk. It is downloaded from an online website or a user gets it through USB ad DVD or various other formats to install/run/save into their computer system.

 

Subscription vs Purchase 

 

Ancestry users get a subscription on the website where the users are charged regularly over a specific period of time until they cancel the subscription. The subscription also provides reports on a web page and various other factors such as connecting with other people.

 

However, in the case of Family Tree Maker, users do not need to pay for it again and again once it has been purchased.

 

Online vs Offline –

 

Users require a working network connection or need to be online to access Ancestry. The users will not be able to access all the information about their tress as well as their photographs without a network connection.

 

In the case of Family Tree Maker, users are allowed to access any information regarding their tree even without a network connection. However, a few features will not be available without a network connection. But users will still be allowed to add up details to their Family Tree maker easily.

 

Book and Charts- My Canvas vs publish

 

Ancestry users have restricted powers to print their trees. Users can only print four-generation details from the chart. So this makes the ancestry family tree not so user-friendly. Users can look at a profile page or a family group sheet from their house print machine.

 

They can also have a professional print copy of their trees or a report through Ancestry. My Canvas will ask for details about the user’s tress to create a book or poster record which the user can modify.

 

Family Tree Maker comes with a range of 37 distinct charts and records with numerous modifying options. The users can get these charts and records in the form of a book.
