For customers upgrading to HyperRESEARCH 4.5.7 from HyperRESEARCH version 3.0 through HyperRESEARCH version 3.7.5, a paid upgrade is required for a new license key. (Contact sales@researchware.com if you would like more information or assistance.)
For customers updating to HyperRESEARCH 4.5.7 from HyperRESEARCH version 4.0.0 through 4.5.6, version 4.5.7 is a free upgrade. Your current version 4 series license key will work to unlock version 4.5.7.
Upgrading to the new version is easy:
- Download & install HyperRESEARCH 4.5.7 from our HyperRESEARCH Downloads page: https://researchware.com/downloads/downloads-hyperresearch.html
- Launch the software and:
- Choose "Use Free Limited Edition" if you wish to "try before you buy," OR
- Enter a valid HyperRESEARCH 4.x.x license key if you wish to lift the restrictions placed in Free Limited Edition mode.
- Open your current study file (created or saved in HyperRESEARCH version 4.x.x) or convert your older study files (created in version 3.x.x) and continue with your work. Please note: Due to changes in macOS Catalina and higher, HyperRESEARCH 4.5.7 is unable to convert older HyperRESEARCH 3.0.0 - 3.7.5 study files (.hs2 files) on those versions of macOS. If you are running Catalina or higher and need to convert an older .hs2 study to version 4.5.7, please do so on an earlier version of macOS or a Windows computer — or contact Researchware technical support for free conversion assistance.
Requirements for Windows:
If you plan to work with digital audio or video, we strongly recommend installing the free "LAV Filters". This provides support for many more media formats than the limited number Microsoft supports by default in its operating system. For more information, see here or download the LAV Filters installer from here.
The HyperRESEARCH Installer requires Administrative permissions to install HyperRESEARCH into the "Program Files x86" folder (default location).
Requirements for macOS:
The HyperRESEARCH Installer requires Administrative permissions to install HyperRESEARCH into the "Applications" folder (default location). When installing to macOS Catalina or higher, please follow the instructions on the last screen of the installer to grant HyperRESEARCH "Full Disk Access" permission before Finishing the Installer and launching HyperRESEARCH.

Why Choose HyperRESEARCH?
HyperRESEARCH is a Simply Powerful Tool for Qualitative Analysis
HyperRESEARCH is easy to use, cross-platform, flexible, powerful, and cost-effective.
Easy to Use: Spend less time figuring out how to use the software and more time analyzing your data!
- The step-by-step tutorials and gentle learning curve lets you get started with coding immediately, learning as you go.
- The intuitive interface and well-written documentation get you up and running with your own data quickly and easily.
- Research assistants can be easily taught how to code and retrieve data without having to use any of the more powerful features.
Cross-Platform: Use it anywhere, on any computer!
- Our User License lets you use the program on all your computers (work, desktop, laptop) without paying extra.
- Runs natively on Macintosh and Windows machines.
- Cross-platform functionality makes it easy for computer-diverse groups to work together on the same study.
- The HyperRESEARCH application is so small you can run it from a USB thumb drive - put both Mac and Win versions on there and you have ultra portability!
Flexible: No matter how you want to approach your data, the software will help you "do it your way."
- Case-based architecture gives you versatility in coding source files to more than one case.
- Get a jumpstart in coding by autocoding multiple sources to multiple cases, applying specified codes to multiple keywords or phrases in a single pass.
- Select any chunk of text (from a single character to an entire file) and apply any number of code names to the chunk.
- Recall your codes by name, or select them based on proximity to other codes.
Powerful: Advanced features give you complete access to and control over your data.
- Advanced media support lets you analyze subtle interactions by coding directly to audio and video files, their transcripts, or both.
- Create memos via "code descriptions" and "annotations" to serve as notes to yourself or to other researchers or for any other purpose
- The Code Map lets you build a visual representation of codes and their relationships (networks) and acts as a powerful code selection tool.
- Generate code frequencies and export them for further analysis with statistical software
- The unique Theory Builder helps you build theories and test them against the codes you've applied to your data.
Cost--Effective: A simply powerful tool for the right price!
- Most affordable among leading qualitative analysis software packages.
- Mac compatibility works on whatever operating system you have, with no need for emulators.
- Small, self-contained application design means better performance on older computers, and less space or memory needed for program functions.
- Ease of use means there's no need for costly (in terms of time and money) workshops or seminars to master the software.
Perhaps most importantly: once you purchase HyperRESEARCH, you can rest assured that support will be there if you need it. See our Support section to view all the ways ResearchWare supports our products. ResearchWare Technical Support goes the distance -- in certain cases, even to the point of developing specific features for clients and incorporating them into the software.
Please see our Sales section for help with the decision-making and ordering process.
