Remote Desktop Services 2022 Device CAL: Remote Desktop Access Licenses

CAL licenses (Client Access License) are essential to ensure proper and legal licensing in business environments using Microsoft server products. At LICENZIO, you can purchase CAL licenses for various Microsoft solutions, such as Windows Server, RDS (Remote Desktop Services), SQL Server, and Exchange Server, all accompanied by their corresponding documentation and traceability.

Microsoft CALs are essential for managing business networks and enabling access to server services, ensuring that both users and devices have the proper permissions to interact with these services. If your company uses products such as Windows Server, Exchange Server, or SQL Server, it is necessary to have the appropriate CAL licenses to enable connection to the servers.

What Are Microsoft CAL Licenses?

CALs (Client Access Licenses) are permissions granted by Microsoft that allow users or devices to legally access server services. Unlike standard licenses, CALs do not allow the software to be executed directly on the device; their function is to enable access and use of the server’s resources. To comply with Microsoft’s licensing policies, every user or device connecting to the server must have a CAL.

For example, if your company uses Windows Server, every employee who accesses the server’s resources will need a user CAL or a device CAL. This ensures that both the company and its employees comply with Microsoft’s licensing regulations, avoiding potential legal penalties in the future.

CAL License Versions:

It is important to consider that CAL licenses are tied to specific versions of the operating system. This means the licenses allow access to the same or earlier versions of the server but not later versions. For example, if you acquire Windows Server 2022 Device CALs, you can access servers with versions such as Windows Server 2022, 2019, 2016, or 2012, but you will not be able to use them to access servers with later versions.

Types of CAL Licenses:

• USER CAL:
  User CAL licenses are tied to a specific user who accesses the server, regardless of the device they use. This is the ideal option for companies where users access the corporate network from multiple devices. Additionally, it is a more cost-effective option if the number of devices exceeds the number of users, as it does not matter how many devices employees use.
• DEVICE CAL:
  Device CAL licenses are tied to a specific device, not the user. Instead of licensing the users, the device that connects to the server is licensed, regardless of how many users use it. This type of license is particularly useful in companies with more users than devices, such as call centers, where multiple employees use the same equipment in different shifts.

Be sure to choose the type of CAL that best suits your company’s needs to optimize management and reduce costs. CAL licenses are key to ensuring efficient and secure access to Microsoft server services.
