UMBC has been working with SPSS to renew the campus site license. Our current licenses will “soft expire” on August 31, 2009. During the soft expiry period users will receive a pop-up warning each time SPSS is launched. The good news is that SPSS will work normally after accepting the pop-up warning. The “hard expire” for is October 31, 2009. After this date SPSS will no longer work.
We expect to receive the new permanent license codes around the third week of September. While the UMBC PO has been received by SPSS they unfortunately will not issue permanent codes until they receive payment from the state. It is expected that SPSS will receive payment from the State of Maryland by mid September.
