When I use the Ancestry it cover all that in one search. I do not like this version of Family search and I do not want to be a subscriber anymore. also it take to much time just to look up one person. I have been using Family search for over 10 years at the library in Morristown, NJ and It was a best for collecting data along with ancestry. What is this so hard to collect all information on one person.

You can search all types of records in one go, using https://www.familysearch.org/search/ and then narrow it down to particular collections or types of records. This is no different to Ancestry
Records can sometimes be removed if the record owner does not give a website permission to keep publishing it. This affects both FS and the for-profit websites; both have occasionally suffered from high-profile withdrawal of records over the years due to being unable to negotiate renewals of contracts.
The search engines also change, and while this is supposed to make things easier, in some cases it will make it more difficult to find a particular record.
