Hi, Allen --

I upgraded to v.9 and after trying it out for a week or two reverted back to v.8. For me, the new features didn't outweigh the problems.

Regarding the "Hints" specifically, if you aren't subscribed to the sites that the hints use, it's not much help. The hints also seemed to consist mostly of information from user uploaded trees, and not original records. I get the same, or better, results using customized "Search the Internet" options in v.8.

If you DO decide to upgrade to v.9, be sure you're prepared, otherwise going back to v.8 can be difficult, if not impossible. Fortunately, I knew about the potential pitfalls before installing v.9 from the reports on this list, so it was a simple matter to switch back to v.8.

That said, this is just my experience and there are many users here who are very pleased with the new version.

What are some of the new features of V9 that makes it worth it? I'm really not sure I'm ready to upgrade at this point.
