IBM SPSS Statistics Announcements

Our annual license for IBM SPSS Statistics has been renewed, and all licenses purchased between today and May 1, 2016 will expire on July 31, 2016.  If you purchased a license between May 1, 2015 and today, you have been sent renewal authorization codes by e-mail that may be used to extend the expiration date of your software.

There are a several important changes to the license this year:

  1. SPSS Statistics 23 has been released and is now available as the default version.
  2. Home use is now allowed.  If you purchase a license that you will be using off campus, please e-mail OIT Software Licensing so that we can keep accurate records and purchase the proper level of coverage next year.
  3. Virtualization is no longer allowed.  SPSS Statistics through the Duke site license may not be installed on a virtual machine and accessed remotely.  The virtualization option made up about 20% of the license cost, and we did not have evidence of widespread virtual use.  Please contact OIT Software Licensing if this change has a major impact on your teaching or research.
  4. The license has been upgraded from SPSS Statistics Desktop to SPSS Statistics Premium.  With this change, the license now includes the following products:
