Sign Up For Q-Cloud

Q-Cloud is now available! Q-Cloud allows you to run Q-Chem calculations in the cloud via Amazon Web Services. We provide a pre-built image and easy-to-use command line interface, so you can start doing calculations as soon as possible.

Fill out the form below, and we will get back to you as soon as we can with instructions on how to get started.

What to consider

  • We offer a free, fully-featured week-long trial license. Please note that unlike the Q-Chem trial, the Q-Cloud subscription automatically renews at the end of the trial period.
  • The pricing listed is for entitlement to run Q-Chem in the cloud, and to use the Q-Cloud command line interface; it does not cover AWS compute costs.
  • Subscriptions and payments for Q-Cloud are processed through PayPal, although customers can use a credit card if they do not have a PayPal account.
  • If you wish to cancel your Q-Cloud subscription, you can do so using the form here. Note that PayPal may need at least 24 hours to process the cancellation; even if you cancel your subscription early, the trial license will last a full week.

Which plan do I need?

How many instances? Unlike a permanent Q-Chem license, Q-Cloud licenses limit the number of instances that can be run simultaneously, with three tiers available: 10 instances, 50 instances, and 100 instances. (Want to run with more than 100 instances? Contact our sales team at sales@q-chem.com for a quote.)

How frequently would you like to pay? Q-Cloud is a subscription, and two payment models are available: 30-day, and Annual. The annual model costs slightly less in the long run, but the 30-day model is lower commitment. Pick whichever model is best-suited to the needs of your company or research group.

Do you have a current Q-Chem license? We are providing a 50% discount to Q-Cloud users who already have a paid permanent Q-Chem license entitlement for the latest Q-Chem (6.2 or 6.3) through the end of this year. Take advantage of the discount while you can!
