NOTE : The Academic License Agreement must be signed, witnessed and received before an order for the Academic License can be processed.
EnviroSim offers academic licenses to Universities at considerable discounts to the price for “commercial” users such as consulting engineers and municipalities. Universities may purchase a 50-seat cloud-based BioWin + BW Controller license for US$250/year (commercial value US$120,000/year)
The intent is that academic licenses are used in the context of education. Specifically, academic licenses may NOT be used for contract research or to provide consulting services.
The essence of the BioWin academic license is that:
- The software is used for educational purposes only.
- The software may be used by bona fide students and University employees for educational and teaching purposes only.
- The software may not be used to provide services (paid or un-paid) to municipalities or consulting engineers. Universities wishing to provide these services must purchase a commercial software license. In the event that the University or any of its representatives (students, staff, faculty members) wishes to use BioWin for “commercial” purposes (including contract research), then arrangements for the purchase of a commercial license must be made.
