"Genbox...is a real powerhouse, loaded with very extensive capabilities
and innumerable options that can be customized and tweaked to satisfy the most
demanding user. While it may take some work to wring out the maximum benefits
from all its features, it will pay off with pleasing results that would be
difficult or impossible to duplicate in other genealogy programs."
"Outside the Box: With its topnotch organizational
and chart-making capabilities, Genbox Family History breaks the typical
genealogy software mold."
In "The Toolkit", by Rick Crume
August 2004
"Most genealogy software falls into one of two categories: either it
produces great graphical charts or it offers useful tools for organizing your
family history, but not both... Genbox Family History 3.1 has quietly emerged as
one of those rare genealogy programs that handle both charts and organization
with aplomb."

the capabilities that an experienced genealogist would need. It appears to be

Byram
Vol. 7 Number 6 - July/August, 2003
(presents an overview of six software packages)
"Genbox is a
complex, unique and evolving genealogy database program...Many of the interface
elements can be customized... The default sentence template for events is shown
and you can preview the sentence and footnote... As expected, a program that
evolved from a charting program has a wealth of graphical charts and an
extensive set of reports."

(Reviews five genealogy programs and includes CDROM)
"The sheer ocean of information you can enter into Genbox Family
History is enormous... Sourcing your research is paramount in genealogy and
Genbox enables you to record this in as much detail as you require... This
program is far superior to many other genealogy efforts we've seen over the
years."
"Genbox Family History 3.0.18", by Bill Mumford
Vol. 29 Number 5 - September/October, 2003
"The design of Genbox has been influenced by the NGS GENTECH Data
Model, and embodies much of the current thought on how a genealogical
database should be structured. It is designed to permit the recording of all
evidence as it is gathered, thus allowing the researcher to track the progression
of a research project from its inception to the final assertion."
"Genbox Family History 3.1.4", by David Allen
Lambert
Vol. 4 nos. 5-6 - Holiday, 2003
"Download this program to see how versatile it is. I think you will
find Genbox Family History will support all of your database needs, as well as
offer spectacular charts and reports of your data."
