SimaPro for education
For universities and other educational institutes, we offer licenses tailored for education and with a lower price compared to professional licenses. The licenses can be used for all activities related to education, but not for commercial projects. Your students can be taught with up-to-date databases like ecoinvent and in a professional software setting.
The following educational licences are available:
- SimaPro PhD is comparable to the single-user version of a professional SimaPro Expert license.
- SimaPro Faculty is a yearly SimaPro license which can be installed on Laptops/PCs of all students subscribed to courses or doing educational studies in one professorship/department. Compared to SimaPro PhD, features for data-exchange and features for analytics like e.g. parametrization and uncertainty assessments are not available.
- SimaPro Classroom is a multi-user licence for up to 40 students that can be used in teaching courses and installed in a classroom (LAN connected or on a server accessed via remote desktop applications). Like this, students can collaborate in projects and exchange data with supervisors.

Service Contract
If you want to use SimaPro for many years, perpetual licenses together with a continuously prolonged service contact show the best value for money:
With an active service contract, you...
- have access to the latest software version of SimaPro
- have access to the latest database versions (e.g. current ecoinvent version 3.X).
- have access to the SimaPro helpdesk at ESU for technical issues (phone or email).
When you buy a new SimaPro license, the first year of service contract is always included in the license price. You will be asked ~two months before the end of your service contract if you want to renew it.
It is not possible to discontinue the service contract for a certain time. Either the contract is renewed seamlessly after the previous contract ends or you cancel the contract.
You get a discount of 5% to 10% on the service contract, if you directly order or renew it for two or three years instead of one.
