Prices for academic research or other non-profit use. Professional usage may include use of PyMOL by industrial scientists in non-profit projects and publications outside the scope of their employment. However, usage within the scope of employment for a for-profit company warrants an industrial purchase by your employer, and usage in personal for-profit activities requires an independent contractor subscription purchase.

Academic purchases are important because they provide means of addressing the unique software and support needs of scientists in basic research and education. Though some software companies offer products free to academics, they typically focus all their efforts onto industrial customers who provide their total revenue. We, in contrast, take a strong interest in academics and seek enduring relationships with students, post-docs, professors, and other academic researchers based on genuine value-for-value exchanges.
The three choices we offer to Academic Sponsors are as follows:
One-Year Maintenance Subscriptions
Three-Year Maintenance Subscriptions <-- DISCOUNT FOR REDUCED PAPERWORK!
Maintenance Subscriptions are required for access to maintenance services such as updates and bug fixes, and for download of current Incentive Products such as our convenient precompiled PyMOL Executables.
One-Year Support Subscriptions <-- Limited availability
Support Subscriptions are optional and intended for select sponsors that have a small number of Power Users that require greater interaction with DeLano Scientific regarding optimal PyMOL usage and to suggest changes that will better enable PyMOL to meet their needs. Support Subscriptions include all Maintenance services including access to Incentive Products.
For transactions under 100 USD, we require payment via PayPal, and we encourage its use under 500 USD. PayPal minimizes overhead and maximizes resources for maintenance, development, documentation, and support of PyMOL!
To order, please contact sales@delsci.com after familiarizing yourself with our Payment Options. All prices listed are for direct purchase only (no resellers).
