Quarterly Sales Patterns for Nutrition Software Packages Featured on This Site

Sometimes it's helpful to know what other people are looking at and ultimately buying, before you make a decision about which nutrition software package to purchase.  Nu Connexions tracks the level of interest displayed by its visitors in the various software packages featured on this site (through demo download requests), and how many of those requests ultimately lead to sales.  As a nutrition software shopper, you can use this information to get a sense of how many people like what they see in the demo and decide to buy.

The information is organized by sales quarter, and where applicable, breaks the information down into sales of consumer and professional versions of the software.  DietPower was added to the Nu Connexions software portal in late August, 2001, so statistics for it are not available for the quarters prior to Q3 of 2001.  Likewise, ESHA's Genesis and Food Processor software systems were added in August, 2002, so statistics for these packages are not available for the quarters prior to Q3 of 2002.  Hope you find this information helpful as you consider which nutrition software package best suits your needs!
