HSPiP は研究室単位でのライセンスの共有が可能です。
【Academics】
We do not offer an academic discount (it’s far too difficult to manage) but we are happy
for a single license to be used by everyone within a single research group (not a whole institution!)
企業・研究機関でのご利用に際しては、継続的に HSPiP を使用するユーザー数分のライセンス購入を推奨しています。
一時的な使用者については、ライセンスの追加購入は不要です。
【Large corporations and networks】
Many large corporations have decided to have HSPiP available throughout (parts of) their organisation.
To get a corporate license we agree what constitutes a “fair use” number of licenses.
If a large research centre has 10 power users and another 10 occasional users it is unfair for us to demand purchase of a total of 20 licenses and unfair to us that only 10 licenses should be used.
So we reach a fair compromise.
Rather than implement a network version that can soak up a lot of our time and IT time, it turns out to be useful for a company’s shared data files to reside on the server with each local user able to use their local files or access the global ones.
One HSPiP power user is all that’s required to keep such a system in good shape.
Many large corporations operate in this manner with good success.
