Customers can choose from a little as a 50 samples subscription, which allows up to 50 samples
to be used in an analysis. If you require larger analyses, we offer larger-sized subscriptions.
In addition, we’re replacing our 30-min preview with a free personal subscription offering. With
a Personal 1-month subscription, a user may use Ingenuity Variant Analysis free of charge for up
to 4 samples. This is ideal for users who would like to try Ingenuity Variant Analysis for a paired
tumor-normal study or a family trio/quad study. With one month to try Ingenuity Variant Analysis,
users will have more time to see the benefits and become experts in genome interpretation.
Licensing
When you purchase an Ingenuity Variant Analysis subscription license, you get 12 months access
and, optionally, your collaborators may be included under your license (as Group Members),
allowing them to upload and analyze samples.
With the Personal license, you’re able to analyze up to 4 samples for one month.
Sample to Insight__
Samples and analysis
With an Ingenuity Variant Analysis subscription, you have the ability to analyze all the active
samples in your account. Furthermore, you can delete active samples and replace them with
newly uploaded samples, allowing you to analyze even more samples. Active samples are
eligible for analysis setup and filtering. Finally, as a paid subscriber, you can download your
results for offline analysis.
With a Personal license, you’re restricted to up to 4 active samples, which can be used in an
analysis and filtering. Deletion of active samples is prohibited.
Collaboration
With the option to create a Group of users under one license, an Ingenuity Variant Analysis
subscription goes a long way. Using the Ingenuity Admin Tool (available free of charge through
Customer Support), an admin user can add/remove users from their license. Each unique user will
gain access to Ingenuity Variant Analysis. They are free to upload and analyze their own
samples, which are viewable only to themselves – unless they share the sample or analysis among
other users. Samples can be shared among Group users, as well as with users outside of the
license.
FAQs
Q: Will I still need to have an activation code to activate my uploaded samples?
A: No. All samples uploaded to your account will automatically be activated once the samples
enter the account — provided you’re not at the limit of your subscription.
Q: Will users within a Group see samples from other Group members?
A: No. Each Group member has their own private “apartment” within the account; however,
members can share samples with other members within the Group.
Q: What happens if I try to accept a share of a cohort of samples but do not have enough slots
available in my account?
A: Whenever you receive shared samples, the incoming samples occupy available slots in your
account. If your account does not have enough capacity to accept the incoming samples, your
account cannot accept the share. You will need to either upgrade to a larger subscription or
delete enough samples to accommodate the new incoming samples.
