8. Family Tree Maker is still around - just no longer sold by Ancestry

The newer version interacts with both Ancestry and FamilySearch.org trees.

You can find it at: https://www.mackiev.com/ftm/

I recently paid for a new version of FTM which will be released this summer so I think if you buy now, the new version will be free.

Heredis is another program I have, mostly because it is supposed to work better with GedSite, which will convert Gedcom files into HTML web pages. My Family Tree Maker GED files do not seem to place tags that allow GedSite to make good pages and the support for GedSite seems to prefer Heredis. I have not worked with Heredis much, though so I can't do much comparison.
