This is not true: to get an academic license of Gurobi, you have to be a member of a degree-granting academic institution (otherwise every person could easily (illegally) get one):

"You must be a faculty member, student, or staff of a recognized degree-granting academic institution.

To activate your license, you must connect from a recognized academic network."

The speed is totally worth it though, literally orders of magnitude better than any alternative for wide problem classes. Plus the bindings are good enough that you rarely ever need to drop into c++
