There is a difference in the price of software purchased from Biomedical Informatics at Children’s Hospital versus from the UC Bookstore. Since Children’s Hospital is a separate entity from UC, installing software purchased from UC on CCHMC owned computers is a violation of that license agreement. However, when purchasing from UC, the license agreement states that the software can be installed only on your personally owned or UC-owned computer and not on machines owned by other institutions.
Please make sure you read the license agreement carefully before you use UC software.įaculty and students of UC are eligible to purchase software from UC. In many cases this software is licensed specifically to UC employees only (i.e., people who receive paychecks from UC) or must be run on UC-owned or controlled equipment, making it inaccessible to Cincinnati Children's personnel.
UC researchers are served with desktop software by UCIT.
