One Copy of Genosis or Two?

Hello! I am THRILLED with Genosis though I only have had the one weekend to tinker around with it!! Here is my question: I have Genosis installed and look forward to inviting fellow researchers to work on our families. My thought is to have many separate trees for research, but the thing is his family will have 13 trees, and my family will have 19 trees for a total of 32 trees! In your opinion, is it better to run 2 copies of Genosis on my site (one for his family - one for mine) or just have the one copy of Genosis with the 32 researching trees? Thoughts on this? ~ Lisa

Do they overlap anywhere? If yes, then one seams the right way to go.

I suppose there are advantages in keeping them separate too, although I cant think of what they are. Maybe best to get Brian's input here. Hes done a lot of work with the system.

No, they do not overlap at any point so far. I also run 2 WordPress blogs which are genealogy related - one for his family and one for mine - mainly just names and dates, but the names show up in the Google search. (each tree about 2200 people in it). If there were 2 copies of Genosis I was thinking of naming each one what the blog is named. Silly, right? The blogs both have pages on Facebook where they have done rather well considering they have been active for only a year (one family has 42 followers and the other has 72 followers). This is why I started looking for a collaborative tree and disliked all my options until I found Genosis on the Gensoft Reviews! I was hoping for a little feedback before I got too far into what I was doing. Thank you!! ~ Lisa

It's really up to you and how you would like to organize things - Genosis can easily handle that number of trees in 1 install, but if you'd like to run the different families at their own unique URL, or have each be the "default" tree when viewed, then you'd want to setup 2 sites.

Hope this helps!
