There is a freeware version as well these days:

https://hex-rays.com/products/ida/support/download_freeware.shtml

  * no commercial use is allowed
  * lacks all features introduced in IDA > v7.0
  * lacks support for many processors, file formats, debugging etc...
  * comes without technical support

(binaries for MS Windows, Linux, and Mac).
