I was wondering if you had any insight on the new dna kit from MyHeritage. I recently read that they had partnered with 23andme but could not find any mention of them in any of the press releases I read.
This is a paragraph from Engadget:
“Of course, ancestry-oriented gene testing is nothing new — 23andMe revolves around it. However, MyHeritage is counting on both its existing genealogy customers (it has 85 million registered users) and its higher-resolution tests as ways of beating rivals. If you can settle the question of where your origins lay with a high degree of precision, you might be more willing to fork over cash.”
Just looking for insight as I am looking into getting a kit for my wife and I
I have no insights on MyHeritage yet. I will blog when I do. Meanwhile Cece wrote this http://www.yourgeneticgenealogist.com/2016/11/myheritage-launches-dna-testing-service.html
If you click on the DNA testing tab, you will find my opinions on each testing company. It really depends on where her ancestors are from. For most Americans I recommend Ancestry.com
