Questions about plans.
- How do I move to a paid plan?
- You choose a paid plan inside Sigmer, after creating an account. Checkout may show the amount in your own currency.
- What happens at a plan's limits?
- A plan's limits stop new things being made, never access to what a workspace already holds. A workspace cannot add a researcher, or publish a study, beyond its plan's limits. Only studies that are collecting count towards the studies a plan allows live at once: drafts, paused and closed studies do not.
- What if a workspace runs out of responses?
- A participant is never turned away because a workspace has used its responses for the year. When a workspace's responses for the year run out, studies already collecting keep collecting. A new study, or one expecting more responses than are left, waits for a response pack, an upgrade or the next year's allowance.
- What if a payment fails?
- If a payment fails, studies already collecting keep collecting and nothing is deleted. After a grace period, publishing a study and inviting a researcher pause until it is settled.
- Do reviewers and collaborators take a seat?
- People you add to one project, such as a reviewer or an outside collaborator, do not take a paid seat.
- Who can have academic pricing?
- Academic pricing is available to researchers who confirm an address at their institution.
- Can a lab pay by invoice?
- Labs can pay annually by invoice, against a purchase order.
- What about a workspace kept in Canada?
- A workspace kept in Canada does not pay in Sigmer yet: its plan is granted by Sigmer on request.
