A fair stand alone licenseI am retired. I used JMP from the time it was solely a Mac statistical program. I owned version 5 (if I recall the numbering correctly). I beta tested the QC components for JMP around that time.
I have, through employers, had JMP in my toolbox for a number of years that I was working. As I stated - I am now retired, so I do not have an employer footing the cost of a license.
A few years ago, before I retired, I had inquired about a single user license - or a stand alone version - and found the price to be crazy high. I am assuming that now it is even worse - or not available at all. Yet you have student licensing.
I think SAS/JMP need to re-evaluate their stance on pricing, let alone availability.

Also - having convinced several universities to adopt JMP, I am still distressed by the pricing (JMP Pro) for commercial users. My students graduate, loving JMP, but then find they have to abandon it when at their place of employment. It is the primary reason for the low rate of JMP usage, compared with other - inferior - programs. I realize it is a business, but in my opinion, the profitability of JMP would be improved with better (meaning lower) pricing for commercial users.
Re: A fair stand alone licenseI am seriously considering abandoning JMP for teaching any of my Psych statistics classes (I'm in the tiny minority in the field as it is). I already teach R in our most advanced graduate class, we've moved to Jamovi for the intro undergrad class and for a professional Masters class - all because if I want them to analyze data when they graduate, JMP's cost won't translate to non-academic environments. If students are never exposed to JMP because of the post-graduation cost, then they're much less likely to ever use it unless they stay in academia (where the licensing is reasonable).
