Q Local Retirement

Why can’t I sign up to become a new Q Local customer?

Q Local is a legacy desktop-based system that has been replaced by Q-global. Q-global is a web-based platform that provides increased flexibility and functionality relative to Q Local. Q-global recently migrated its servers to an instance of Amazon AWS in the United States and is in the process of obtaining FedRAMP authorization, which will provide best-in-class security controls that provide you the assurance that your patient data is private and secure.

Why am I no longer able to purchase a network license for Q Local?

The network license utilizes Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Express for its database management, and this version of SQL Server will no longer be supported as of July 9, 2024. When this support lapses, the network version of Q Local will no longer receive database security updates, will not be compatible with new Windows operating systems, and may incur issues related to future Microsoft updates.

What are my options if I’m a current network license user?

The first option is to transition to Q-global®, our web-based administration and scoring platform that provides increased flexibility and functionality relative to Q Local. Q-global recently migrated its servers to an instance of Amazon AWS in the United States and is in the process of obtaining FedRAMP authorization, which will provide best-in-class security controls that provide you the assurance that your patient data is private and secure.

The second option is to convert to the desktop version of Q Local, which will be supported beyond 2024. If you would like to transition to Q-global or the Q Local desktop license, please contact your assessment rep or Customer Support at 1-800-627-7271. We will convert any unused test inventory onto the new platform and help you migrate your patient data where possible. If you choose to stop using Q Local as of the sunsetting date and do not convert to another option, we will offer you credit for any unused inventory in your account.
