Sometimes you just need a little help
How does the free trial work?
The free trial gives you 14 days to test 5iQ out and get a feel for how it works. It’s very simple to sign up for a trial, and no credit card is required. In the trial you can either use the demo data we provide or upload your own data that will roll over to your account once you sign up with 5iQ.
Can I extend my trial period?
Sure if you’ve run out of time or simply need more time let us know and we’ll extend your trial otherwise you will automatically be forwarded to the plan subscription page, from there select the plan that suits and continue to enter your billing information. Your account will reactivate immediately.
Do I need to sign up for a 5iQ subscription for a certain period?
5iQ is offered on a monthly basis under the SaaS model (Software as a Service) however we also offer annual plans which work out to be less expensive over a 12 month period.
Can I upgrade my subscription plan?
Yes! Plans can be upgraded at any time using the option within your account in 5iQ.

Yes! You may add extra users at any time within your 5iQ account. You can find it under Settings > User's.
How do I cancel my subscription?

Not at all, 5iQ Workshop Software is 100% cloud based and runs on most browers, no downloading of clunky old server based workshop software. 5iQ works on both PC's and Macs.
