I too have just bought Custodian so I will be interested to hear your thoughts and suggestions on this program. Have you joined their mailing list ?

Which, if any, to use with Legacy? Greetings... I use both Legacy and Master Genealogist, and have used Clooz since its inception. Most recently I got a copy of Custodian 3, which I am yet to tackle. I am a stickler for software and do like using what I consider the best that's out there, best for me, that is. Each software package has its pros and cons, as well as its own idiosyncrasies. This may all seem redundant, but I like the differences that I can achieve using the different vehicles. I like the facility of Clooz to create the variety of document management reporting. I like the ability to enter the name of an ancestor and be able to produce a condensed reporting of what documents and sources I have on file. As I am now the family librarian and historian one of my goals is to be able to present our family history information in a multiple varieties of ways that could suit the individual needs of family members who are interested. My current family is globally spread. Having the available variety of reporting formats and the ability to store and present data in various ways seems to satisfy family members and seems to incite them to become more supportive and involved in the overall project.

If Legacy can keep track of these sources, even if they're not linked to any individuals or families or events, then what does Clooz provide that Legacy does not?
