Where can I get access to Aspen Plus or HYSYS?

Getting Access to a valid Aspen Plus & HYSYS license is not easy! It is actually very expensive so the most common ways to get access are the following:

At Work

By far the easiest way is to verify if you have access at work. If you are simulating processes, it is most likely that your company is already having access to such software. Commonly, AspenTech will issue certain amount of licenses to the company, so you might ask for one.

Note that if the company does not has any kind of licensing, you should ask for it. It is a great investment on behalf of the company and it will improve their process via software simulation.

Ensure to verify that the software you are using is a LEGAL and AUTHORIZED license for you to use.

At a Lab / Research Center

Research Centers and Labs will typically have access to AspenTech Software licenses as well. 

Ask for your colleages if you need to.

If your Lab or Research Center does not have access, you can try to get a relatively inexpensive license for your specific purposes.

In a University

This is the most common way in which students interact with the software.

It is pretty convinient for AspenTech to give relatively cheap licenses to the universities so they continue to have the “monopoly” of the Process Simulation Industry. If only AspenTech Software is available for students, then they will only know how to simulate in these software, therefore, no need to bother with other tools and softwares.

Note that there are many ways in which you can get access:

  • Computer Room, software available only via LAN conection
  • Virtual Desk in your Laptop, software available only within the University’s WireLess Network
  • Virtual Desk in your Laptop, software available 100% within internet connection

Whichever way you have access to, you should ensure to finish your work within in the given limits!

Get a Trial

Rumor has it that there are ways in which you could get some Trial or special deal depending on your unique case. My recommendation is that you simply send an e-mail asking and see what you can get 🙂

IMPORTANT NOTE!

Please avoid any kind of piracy or using unauthorized licenses.

This is STEALING the work of others! If you can’t get a license, there are many options out there which are CHEAPER or even FREE.
