Evaluation Use

If you are interested in our software and think you might like to purchase it, but you want to make sure that it really works as well as word on the street would have it, you are welcome to evaluate the software. We provide short-term evaluation licenses for this purpose that are fully featured, rather than crippled demo versions of the software. The software may be installed and used throughout your site in an unlimited fashion - unlimited users, unlimited computers, unlimited processors in parallel jobs, and unlimited simultaneous jobs.

Remember that evaluation software may be used for evaluation purposes only. It is forbidden to make use results of the software for research purposes or for any purposes other than evaluation of the software. In the not uncommon event that, during the evaluation, your virtual screen finds a candidate that is in the corporate collection, and, although it was missed by HTS, proves to be active, you should immediately purchase a standard license agreement. It can be back dated and will supercede the evaluation agreement with respect to the intellectual property of the results.

To request an evaluation, please read the terms of the Evaluation Agreement. If you agree to the terms, select the appropriate button and then fill in the form that should automatically appear. You will then be contacted with appropriate instructions for downloading and installation, as well as the license key.

Please be aware that the license key will expire two months after it is generated, not two months from when the software is installed. So if you request an evaluation and then wait 6 weeks before trying out the software, the license key may seem to expire quickly.
