RE: NumberCruncher 2023 and QuickView 2023 Release
Greetings to NumberCruncher and QuickView Customers, One and All!
Interviewer:
Your resume says that you’re quick in math.
So what’s 19 x 67?
Candidate:

Interviewer:
That's not even close.
Candidate:
But it was quick.
Well, the release of NumberCruncher 2023 has been anything but “quick”.
But here’s some context for the activity around NumberCruncher during the past two years:
- Over 1,000 changes made (both large and small).
- Program compiled and recompiled over 460 times.
- Over $3M invested in the upcoming cloud version, which has involved re-engineering 100+ modules, many of them in place since NumberCruncher’s first release in 1984.
We are profoundly grateful for your loyalty and your patience in waiting for this release. We hear from countless users who love NumberCruncher, in part, for its accuracy and dependability, which is why it has built a base of some 3,500 firms with some 10,000 users. We believe that this release is one “for the ages”.
Today's announcement is comprised of three primary components:
- Remembering Steve Leimberg (1943 – 2022): A note regarding our dear co-founder, Steve Leimberg, who died on December 1, 2022.
- NumberCruncher 2023 and QuickView 2023 are here: Highlights of our release notes and instructions on how to download your copy are included below.
- Customer Portal: We're delighted to introduce our customer portal, where you can download your software and manage your account.
- DataNet: Now available on the customer portal!
Remembering Steve Leimberg
(1943 – 2022)
It is with profound sadness that we report that co-founder Steve Leimberg died on Thursday, December 1, 2022, at the age of 79. Please see this tribute to Steve, originally published on December 19, 2022, as a Leimberg Information Services Newsletter. It also appears on the Leimberg home page where it has been viewed over 22,000 times. Steve was our very own "Most Interesting Man in the World".
In 1984, Steve (along with Bob LeClair) built the first version of NumberCruncher in VisiCalc, the very first spreadsheet ever invented. They went on to form Leimberg & LeClair, Inc. in 1995 (now Leimberg, LeClair & Lackner, Inc.) and built this into a robust business that currently serves some 3,500 firms with some 10,000 users. May he rest in peace.
NumberCruncher 2023 and QuickView 2023 are here!
It's a big year for NumberCruncher and QuickView, and we're delighted to announce the official 2023 release of both products!
