Licence types I can understand, clear pricing structure and negotiated deals with the HE community in mind.
Helen Rhodes, School of Management Librarian University of BathThey offer good value for money and are often easy to opt into
Jo Taylor, Contracts & Purchasing Officer University of SurreyPreferential pricing for education is always guaranteed
Aidan McGrath, IT Manager Waterford Institute of TechnologyEasy to use, widely understood
Kirk Bellerby, Snow SoftwareIt's convenient for us, Chest creates these ready-made licence agreements that are simple and easy to sign up to. Eliminates the time and resources needed for HE institutions to negotiate individually with software vendors. Good customer service, always provide good timely responses and always listen to feedback from everyone.
Chris Morrison, Copyright, Software Licensing and IS Policy Manager University of KentFar more beneficial to us as an institution that a lot of the leg-work (in terms of procurement rule compliancy, pricing & contract negotiation & fairness) has already been done on our behalf. Especially helpful when not every member institution has the appropriate staffing to take on these challenges
Cameron Douglas, Software Licencing & Compliance Officer University of HuddersfieldI have found the agreements to be useful in getting clear details of both the offering; and the price structure; whilst offering prices that may be more favourable than those that could be negotiated by individual institutions
