Available to

CCRF investigators. You can download a 30-day free trial version here. BMI currently maintains a 3-seat dynamic (floating) license, which means that no more than 3 computers can be using Vector NTI at any one time. To participate in the license pool, please email your request to the BMI Help Desk. You will be contacted by our business director and applications specialists with further instructions.

Cost

Currently, the initial (1st year) cost per license is approximately $750, with estimated annual recurring costs of approximately $150\license\year. These numbers will fluctuate from year to year depending on the number of users who participate in the pool. If the number of interested investigators increase, we will likely negotiate more dynamic seats to ensure that lockouts are kept to a minimum.
