SimaPro service contract

All SimaPro perpetual licenses include a free one-year service contract. You can easily purchase additional years of service to benefit from updates, access to additional databases, and the SimaPro helpdesk. Please note that we no longer offer perpetual licenses but you can still renew your service contract if you already have a perpetual license.

Why choose SimaPro service contract?

Software and database updates

With a service contract, you always have the newest version of the SimaPro software with the latest databases and methods. The SimaPro service contract also maintains your ecoinvent license.

Access to additional databases

High-quality data is crucial for conducting robust LCA studies. With an active service contract, you can download extra databases (for example AGRIBALYSE and EXIOBASE) free of charge.

Customer support and educational materials

We understand that sometimes issues or questions may arise, which is why our Support team is there to help you. With a service contract, you get access to the SimaPro helpdesk and can benefit from our extensive Help Center.

We have been using SimaPro for over a decade now. Currently as a server application, which is much more convenient when you have several users. We often need to go deep into the inventory to see where specific impacts come from, with SimaPro this is possible. Also working with parameters makes SimaPro extra valuable.
