ohmiGene is a complete program for the management of your genealogical data.
Available in French and English, ohmiGene works under MacOS X (PowerPC or MacIntel, including Leopard) and Windows.
ohmiGene is a 'clean' program : it works exclusively in the folder which contains it.
A database created on Mac works on PC, and vice versa.
An USB key, containing a working folder with the programs ohmiGene (PPC), ohmiGene X (MacIntel) and ohmiGene.exe (Windows) can be connected on any computer : ohmiGene is immediately operational
Data are saved in the database with the encoding UTF8 : languages as the cyrillic can be used.
ohmiGene is THE program, working with a database, which respects more the GEDCOM format (import-export).
If any context concerning the submission of a file to the church LDS is absent, almost totality of the other contexts are correctly handled (import, manipulation and export...): individual records ou family records, evnts, attributes ... without forgetting the relations (tag ASSO), the multiple identities, neither the possible doubles (tag ALIA) ... contexts often ignored by many software !
SOME CHARACTERISTICS
- The majority of the current features are present: individual or family card, websites, quick lists, trees, fan chart ...
- The majority of the contexts support an unlimited number of associated documents, notes, sources and sakouveux ...
- The possibility of easily creating lists of persons, according to a multitude of criteria. These lists can be the object of tasks in series (marks, sources...), printed or exported ...
- Etc. .
A COMPLETE MANAGEMENT OF THE GENEALOGY
- Modules allowing to manage the surnames, the mess of places, the sources, the documents associated, the names of the events, the sakouveux ...
- A powerful module TO TRACK THE DOUBLES before merging them, if necessary.
- Without forgetting a module providing some statistics, a module allowing to convert dates in various calendars (Julien, Gregorian, Chinese, Indian, Islamic, Jewish and French), a possible connection with Google Maps, Wikipedia etc. .
In project, if there is a request: the possibility of managing the homosexual unions.

I've been using iFamily. For an inexpensive and intuitive interface for genealogy, it can't be beat. This is created by someone who, while he may have some interest in genealogy, has no idea of basic software design and interface guidelines.
