Obtaining a Trial Licence

A trial licence provides full functionality of the Insight Explorationist bundle for a 30-day period with the following exceptions:

  1. Data cannot be exported. 
  2. A subtle watermark is overlaid on all displays when running in this mode.

All project data created with an trial licence can continue to be used after upgrading to a commercial or academic licence.

An official evaluation can be arranged by emailing [email protected] which will grant fuller access to DUG Insight.
