Software Sales Overview
Our Software Sales service provides academic, scientific, technical, and productivity software products for purchase by departments and, in certain cases, individual faculty, staff, and students. Please refer to each product listing for detailed information on availability and pricing.
Important Details:
- The Division of IT does not prorate software purchase costs (unless it is specifically stated).
- All software licenses are tied to a fixed license period. Regardless of the purchase date, licenses must be renewed annually to remain active for the designated term.
- Availability may vary by product; we strongly encourage reviewing product-specific information before submitting a request.
Approval Requirement: Please note that the Software Sales team cannot proceed with any software request until it has been approved by the department’s fiscal approver within the ticketing system. This step ensures compliance with departmental purchasing policies and budget authorization.

Specialized Software-Not Managed by Software Sale Team
For those needing specialized academic software, it might be beneficial to contact your faculty, teaching assistant, or IT Pro Group for more information. Please note that specialized software is typically purchased by the department and not through software sales staff.

License Policy Information
Compliance with Software License Agreements
The University of Missouri strictly adheres to all software license agreements and requires all users to do the same. The Division of Information Technology will not knowingly assist in or allow the use of university equipment in violation of these agreements.
- License agreements expire when a user’s affiliation with the University of Missouri ends.
- Software must not be copied or loaned for duplication.
License Renewal Requirements
All licenses are governed by their stated license period, regardless of purchase date.
- Responding promptly to renewal reminders and keeping track of your software renewal dates will help prevent service interruptions and ensure continued access.
- Licenses must be renewed annually to maintain uninterrupted access.
Split Department MoCodes? Our software billing system does not support splitting costs between MoCodes. Only one MoCode may be used to request a software purchase. To proceed with a split, the department will need to handle a correcting entry to allocate the funds appropriately after the purchase has been posted in the finance system.
Additional Discounts? The university is committed to securing software at the most cost-effective rates. As a result, we do not provide discounts beyond the per license rate listed on each software page. There are no group or bundle discounts available for purchase requests.
Get Started – For Qualtrics only
Faculty/Staff
Department purchases must be made using a single MoCode. Please coordinate with your department’s authorized signer prior to submitting your request. Software purchase requests must first go through a MoCode approval workflow within the ticket system before being assigned to the software sales team to dispatch the license. Doing this will help expedite the approval process for your purchase.
Students
Students will be required to log in with your username@umsystem.edu.
*S&T, UMSL, and UMKC , please contact your local IT department.
All licenses are for one year, based on the stated license period, and must be renewed annually for the new license period.
