Licensing

Simple licensing. Every licence includes every feature.

SpectraSim is sold as a perpetual, yearly or monthly licence; every licence includes every feature. Prices are given on quotation. Licences are delivered as an offline licence file — no online activation. A 30-day trial is requested from inside the program because it is bound to your computer.

  • All features
  • Offline licence file
  • One computer per licence
  • [MISSING M38 — machine binding / transfer]
  • [MISSING M09 — currency, VAT]
Free 30-day trial

Requested from inside the program.

Install SpectraSim, open Help → Request a licence, choose Trial and send us the request code — by e-mail, or paste it on the quotation page. A trial is bound to your computer, so it is requested from inside the program, not on this website. One trial per computer and e-mail address.

Licence activation, step by step

Updates and versions

A licence covers the versions released before its maintenance end date. For a yearly or monthly licence that date is the end of the term; a perpetual licence includes 12 months of maintenance, renewable, and never stops working on the versions it covers. A newer version that the licence does not cover opens in explore mode and shows the date your licence covers. A new major version is a new purchase for every licence type.

Projects from older versions open and convert safely: the file on disk is never changed on opening, and before saving you choose between a new file and converting the original, which is kept as a backup. Earlier installers stay available on the previous versions list.

Licensing questions

How much does SpectraSim cost?

SpectraSim is priced by quotation. Request a quote with the licence type — perpetual, yearly or monthly — and the number of seats, and we reply with a quotation by e-mail. Every licence includes every feature.

Is there a free trial of SpectraSim?

Yes, 30 days. Install SpectraSim, open Help → Request a licence, choose Trial and send us the request code. Solving is complete; exporting result data and reports is locked and pictures carry a “SpectraSim Trial” watermark.

Is there a student or academic licence?

Yes. A student / academic licence is for teaching and research at a university or school and runs 3 months, renewable. Request it on the quotation page with your educational e-mail address (an address ending in .edu, or with ac or edu before the country code, such as name@uni.ac.uk). When it ends, the program switches to explore mode.

What is a promo code?

A promotion code we give out, for example at a course or a conference. Enter it in the Promo code field of the quotation form; it can extend the period of the licence. We check it when we issue the licence.

What happens when my yearly licence ends?

A yearly or monthly licence keeps working for a 7-day grace period, then the program switches to explore mode. Your projects stay yours and still open, and the results and reports of your own projects stay exportable.

Can I move my licence to another computer?

[MISSING M38 — machine binding and licence transfer policy]

Do you offer academic or network / floating licences?

Floating or network licences are not available. Academic licences: [MISSING M33 — academic licence terms]

Is there a discount for several licences?
