researchers work in universities, almost all of which have site-wide licenses. Site-wide licenses for mathematica also start to approach reason. Its doubtful that that many researchers will have to pirate it.
- delackner 18y agoUniversities in a lot of countries do not have budgets that can deal with even $1000 a seat.
- dzorz 18y agoI can confirm this. We have a site-wide license for Matlab, but not for Mathematica. Educational version of Mathematica 7 would cost me my two monthly salaries - therefore I will pirate it.
- listic 18y agoI didn't buy any, but from my point of view, Mathematica is priced just a bit lower than Matlab. Matlab quotes me $1900 for a single common license: http://www.mathworks.com/store/loginSubmitGuest.do http://www.mathworks.com/store/loginSubmitGuest.do while Mathematica is $1750: http://store.wolfram.com/view/app/mathematica/ http://store.wolfram.com/view/app/mathematica/ How much does site license for Matlab cost you?
- PStamatiou 18y agoI got Matlab student version 4 years ago for around $140.
- maximilian 18y agoA site license is a lot. My dept can't afford it and use Maple instead.
