How Our Office Determines Which Software to Buy

OIT Software Licensing decides which software licenses to offer by gauging the interest of the faculty and staff. If you don't see a product listed on our pages that you would like to use, please call us at 301.405.2986 or e-mail us at software-licensing@umd.edu.

Usually we encourage individuals to inquire about the costs from manufacturers unless we believe there will be a large scale usage of the software product. Manufacturers usually offer savings on a volume purchases and sometimes site licenses. Any products which you don't see on our page are probably not available through our office.
