FlowJo v10.5+ offers a named-user subscription (i.e. username/password) option for authentication through the FlowJo Portal platform.
This latest licensing tool means researchers no longer need to worry about losing or breaking their FlowJo Dongle, and their license won’t be bound to a particular computer in order to analyze data in FlowJo.
