NVivo

NVivo is software for qualitative research and analysis.

NVivo gives you a place to organise, store and retrieve your data so you can work more efficiently, save time and rigorously back up findings with evidence. Import data from virtually any source – text, audio, video, emails, images, spreadsheets, online surveys, social and web content and more. With advanced data management, query and visualization tools, NVivo lets you ask complex questions of your data so you can discover more and features best-in-class accessibility options for all researchers.

The licence agreement allows for the use of NVivo on all university computers. Staff can install NVivo via the IDS Support Portal on your computer and student computers already have it installed.

Staff and postgraduate students can also request a licence for home use.

Regardless of whether NVivo is used on a university and/or at home computer, by using the software, our researchers accept the limited right to use a copy of the NVivo software and acknowledge and agree to the following:

1. The program is owned by QSR International and is copyrighted and licensed. Use of the software is governed by the "International Site Wide License Agreement" (SWLA) entered into by the QSR International (hereinafter QSR) and Flinders University.
2. I will not lend, rent, lease or licence the software or any copy or provide the software through any hosted application service provider or other similar arrangement or otherwise permit ANY SECOND PARTY to use or access the Program.
3. While obtaining the software for at home use I will delete the downloaded start up NVivo files and provided emails with the authorisation code, upon successful installation and authorisation.
4. I will not alter, decompile, disassemble, merge, modify, adapt, reverse assemble, reverse compile, or otherwise reverse engineer the software in any way. Neither, will I attempt to do any of the above.
5. If the software is installed on a privately owned computer as well as at the university office, SWLA does not permit use of the NVivo software on both the first and second device at the same time.
6. I will read and abide by the licence agreement associated with this software that is provided during installation.
7. I will only use the program for teaching, educational and non-commercial academic research in relation to my work at Flinders University.
8. I will not use the program for privately funded research, neither for consultancy, research or services leading to commercial exploitation of the program.
9. Upon completion of my employment or study or when requested to do so for any reason, by QSR or Flinders University, I will return any copies of the software supplied under this agreement and delete any other copies of the software in my control, including any copies resident on hardware within my control that are not located on the University campus.
