BI Tools: Licensing

Learn about licensing for business intelligence solutions at UC San Diego.

Cognos

UC San Diego has purchased an enterprise license for Cognos. No further action is needed to obtain a license for your project.

Tableau

Departments must purchase a developer license for each user who will be creating, editing and publishing reports. You do not need a license to view and/or interact with pre-created Tableau solutions.

The cost for a Tableau developer license is:

• $1,200 for the license, and
• $300 per year for maintenance

The first year’s pro-rated maintenance is due at initial purchase.

We co-term the maintenance agreements, so the first year’s maintenance will vary from the standard $300. Contact busintel@ucsd.edu to request a quote.
