I found GenViewer indispensable when I was importing another file into Legacy. During Legacy's import/merge process, if someone popped up that I had a question about, I could view the same file with GenViewer to see other views about that person and how they were linked to others. Thus allowing me to make a more "educated" answer to Legacy's questions.
