Eventus and EventStream Price List

Please visit our quote request page to obtain a quote from which to place an order, or to obtain information on upgrade discounts, multi-campus discounts, multi-operating environment discounts or non-academic prices. Prices are subject to change without advance notice, but our quotes lock in current prices for several weeks.

Eventus and EventStream are licensed and not sold. The prices on this page are for educational institutions only. Only current employees or currently registered students may be permitted to use the software. All prices on this page are for users at one site, defined as a geographically contiguous campus of an educational institution. Multiple sites of the same organization ordering simultaneously may be eligible for a multi-site discount. Eventus versions for installation on local Linux or Solaris systems may require that we be granted system access (without root privileges) to install and test our software.

Explanation of Fee Options

Annual site subscription licenses allow unlimited users, with access to user support by e-mail and upgrades at no additional charge while the subscription is up to date. Perpetual licenses are available for the currently shipping version of Eventus for Windows only, for a one-time fee, with access to user support by e-mail for 18 months and downloadable hotfixes for 30 months. The perpetual license fee depends on the number of authorized users. This does not refer only to how many people may use the software simultaneously, but how many people are authorized to use it at any time. An authorized user who leaves the organization or permanently stops using the software may be replaced by another. Information technology staff need not be counted toward the authorized user limit if they do not use the software to obtain data or results except for software testing purposes. Research assistants and staff who use the software to obtain data and results for others count against the limit. Perpetual licenses do not include future versions, but our policy is to allow a discount when upgrading to the next version within three years after the most recent purchase. We may make interim upgrades with new features available exclusively to annual subscribers. Future revisions to our software to accommodate substantial technical changes, beyond routine updating, in third-party products (e.g. Windows, SAS, CRSP) may be unavailable to existing perpetual licensees except by purchasing a new license to the latest version.

Standard Academic Prices*

Fee after standard academic discount but before shipping, handling and activation charges and before non-doctoral institution discounts when applicable.

The Fine Print

Prices on this page do not include potential shipping, handling and activation charges, which are always included in the quoted total and clearly itemized in your custom quote document when they are applicable.

In some jurisdictions we may need to collect sales tax, not included in the quote, if the ordering entity is subject to sales tax. We do not collect taxes for non-U.S. jurisdictions. All our operations are within the state of Iowa in the U.S.

The non-WRDS versions of all our products require licensees to make their own arrangements to license The SAS System, version 9.1 or 9.2, which must be available to run on the same computer on which our software is to be installed. At a minimum, Base SAS and SAS/STAT are required; SAS/GRAPH, SAS/ETS or SAS/IML may be required to use some features. The SAS importer for PC file formats is highly recommended for Windows users, but not required to run Eventus itself. The SAS System is a product of SAS Institute, Inc. Three-user and ten-user licenses are limited to use with only one SAS site number, even if the licensee institution has more than one site number.

We sell our software licenses directly only. We do not work with resellers due to the unique nature of our products and services.

All our software is licensed and not sold.
