IDA comes with different types of licensing, editions and discounts. You will find all relevant information on this page.
Buying IDA + Decompiler is the best decision and development investment I have made in the last 5 years.
The IDA license doesn’t expire: once it has been granted, provided the license is not revoked for non-payment, piracy or other licensing breaches, the software is yours to use for as long as you see fit. Your ability to get support and updates is limited in time and must eventually be renewed through support plans/upgrades. Your initial IDA license comes with a year of support and upgrades. End User Agreement for IDA
Named licences are linked to a specific end user and may be used on the user’s laptop, and two desktop computers. They are a logical choice for private users but are also available to corporations and universities if and when only one end user uses the software.
Computer licences are linked to a specific computer and may be used by different end-users on that computer provided only one user is active at any time. This license type is suitable for corporations because they are not tied to physical persons and allow for easy license reassignment.
Floating (or Network) licenses can be installed on unlimited number of computers (in one organization) but allow only a limited number of simultaneously running copies.
We offer free educational licenses to universities and other academic institutions that publicly enroll students on a regular basis. Military institutions do not qualify for educational licenses. More details
The educational license supports x86, x64, ARM, and ARM64 processors. It comes with a native local debugger for Windows or Linux. Python and IDC scripts are supported. Input files up to 1MB can be analyzed.
To apply, send us a formal request on the organization letterhead with the following information: the name and description of the course where IDA Educational will be used, the start date and duration of the course, the desired platform to run IDA Educational (Windows/Linux), the number of required seats, the title, name, and email of the professor
