This web site needs one thing badly

There is no page here that I can find that lists the specifications of NWC (such as # of staves supported, file formats supported, import export capability, etc). Most packages list their capabilities.

It seems to be almost an infinite number of staves; it imports midi files and saves/exports in both nwc and midi formats.

The help menu tells you almost anything you need to know, then the forum and user tips supplement that.

The support for registered users (those of us who paid for the program) is phenomenal, and the price is right.

I'd rather go with the existing price than have all the features of the expensive programs. This one (NWC) is elegantly simple to use.

The price is right. If you want more bells and whistles, buy the megabucks programs.

I was once using lots of staves (and I mean lots of staves) and when I started another stave there was just that stave there with nothing else so there appears to be a limited number of staves in a file.

Some packages list these things because they specifically offer cheaper, artificially crippled versions of their packages that limit staves, pages, notes, or whatever. This "helps" you to select which variant of their offering satisfies your requirements. With NWC, there is one package. There is no specific need for a shopping list of limited features, since NWC is offered as one package.

You are strongly encouraged to try the evaluation to make sure that it does what you want (rather than base your decision on a list of numbers).

See also: https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=106, which lists the max staves, which is still valid today. The maximum staves in view has increased over time to accommodate staff layers.
