Difference between Essentials, Primium and Platinum - FTM2008: Is the software the same and price difference is due to access time on Ancestry?

I believe the only difference between the 3 versions is the amount of included access time on Ancestry.com. FTM 2008 Basic is 1 month; FTM 2008 Deluxe is 3 months; FTM 2008 Platinum is 6 months. Now, if this full access to EVERYTHING (don't know if it is but since it says premium access, I would think so) I pay $300 a year for full access to both US and International records. If the premium access is limited to just the US, it's still $180 a year. Therefore, FTM 2008 Platinum, with the current rebate offered, is a great deal for 6 months free access that is worth anywhere between $90 to $150 in REAL dollars! And believe me, with access to those billions of records at Ancestry's web site, you are guaranteed to find many of your ancestors! I would jump at this deal if I could, but I already have a yearly subscription and I'm using FTM 2008.

As long as your files are not from the original Family Tree maker you should be alright. The only thing is is that you can not go back to the older version of FTM unless you make a copy. Also it is recommended that you use the backup file if you have lots of pictures and documents because a GED does not save them but will reference them as a source.

I have only purchased the international metal polish, so I am unsure of the difference. I would recommend checking to see if they have their own website and ask them directly. I love this polish, it has always worked for me. Good luck

To my knowledge there is no difference. Sometimes when searching products on Amazon, I've found prices on exact products differ greatly, depending on the individual companies selling the item. As for working with Win 8 - I'm not sure but there is a Cook'n Version 11 review on the Amazon site that says they are using it with 8 so I would assume it's the same program but you can check that review out to be safe. Good luck and hope you enjoy Cook'n as much as I do!

They both have beautiful color reproduction and both have a nice glossy finish.For durability of finish I don't know if there's a difference.I've had good success with both as far as data burning!I would probably go with the cheapest one ehin I repurchase!

I didn't find any difference. I am using it and it is a little different from my friends full version, but nothing that I can decipher that makes a major difference in how to use the tools or publish. I hope that helps. I am using my version in a non profit and it works for how we utilize the program.

I use to use Dragon 8 Medical, then upgraded to Dragon 9 preferred, and with a little training, then upgrade to Dragon 9.5, it handles my medical terminology well. Not worth the additional $1000 to get the Dragon 9.5 Medical.

I think the only difference is the color of the work table. The Platinum table is grey, and the Premium table is black... I also believe that the Platinum comes in a few more kettle color options.

Advanced Correction/Editing : Ability to playback your speech in documents 4. Ability to create multiple audio sources (more than one type of audio input device) sharing a vocabulary within the same profile 5. Ability to import/export custom word lists and user profiles 6. Easily create commands to insert frequently used text and/or graphics by voice You may look up the difference at the url: http://www.nuance.com/ucmprod/groups/dragon/@web-enus/documents/collateral/nc_025214.pdf Hope this is helpful.

You won't need to do a manual download, Ancestry.com will do that for you when you open your Family Tree Maker on your computer. The two data bases (Ancestry.com and FTM) will "sync" up with each other automatically. When you add data to FTM it will sync with Amcestry.com when you exit the program. When you go online and add data to Ancestry.com it will sync up the next time you open the FTM program on your computer. You can also download your family tree from Ancestory.com and FTM into a GEDCOM file that can be uploaded to other genealogy programs and websites.

Yeah, I am not sure either, but considering C2 appears to be a more recent version update not to mention, cheaper and also come with free office 2013, that made my choice easy to decide.

Hi, I found no difference whatsoever! I alternate between the 2 of them depending on which one is cheaper! Hope that helps! :)

I don't know, but I will say that I bought the software at Amazon for much less than $219. I believe I paid about $40. I am not a power user, but I do regularly use the word processing and spreadsheet applications. I've also used the Presentations application, but less often. For my level of use, it has no peer. Unlike MSWord, I don't think I have ever needed it to do something it was not capable of.

I had been wondering myself what the difference is. I did find both products on LaCie.com - 301827U http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?pid=11023 301442U http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?pid=11156and compared the specs. The only difference I found was in the accompanying backup software - I am quite happy with Time Machine, thanks.

As far as I can tell from my research (incl. reading instructions), there's no difference except price: Zadro 365 costs less!! Wish I had seen it first.
