License Information

Terms & Conditions

FlowJo has two different licenses available. BOTH require that each user of the software have a FlowJo portal account. The creation of a FlowJo portal account can be done at cloud.flowjo.com or can be done from within the FlowJo application itself, as long as the version of FlowJo is v10.5 or higher. Use your "med.umich.edu" email account as your username for your portal account. The FlowJo Portal password can be whatever you want—it is NOT tied to your Level-1 or Level-2 password.

The two types of licenses are: 

  • User License: The software is licensed by the end-user with a portal account. The software can be installed on up to four (4) computers but can be used only by that one end-user.
  • Shared Lab Computer License: The software is licensed by the computer and can be used by anyone with a portal account but the software can be used only on that licensed computer. This license is best used for labs where multiple users use the same machine.

For Software Request 

FlowJo is available on Michigan Medicine managed devices.  

  • If you have a CoreImage Windows device and need the software installed, please check the box that you need software installed and answer the related questions on the form below.
  • If you have a CoreMac: You do not need to submit this catalog item. Instead, self-install it by using the Managed Software Center available on your CoreMac.
  • If you have a personal computer: Due to changes in our licensing model, we no longer support installing FlowJo on personal computers.

For more information, please see the FlowJo KB Article.

Your laboratory may need a combination of these two types. A separate request must be submitted for each user or each machine, and a Shortcode must be provided.
