Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 Device CAL

Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 Device CAL – license in a legally compliant way, scale flexibly and economically. Get yours now.

With the Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 Device CAL you license access to your Exchange environment per device. This is especially practical when several people use the same PC, a terminal or a thin client. You get a perpetual licence with predictable costs that grants the access right for exactly one device – transparent, documented and audit-proof.

The Device CAL complements your existing Exchange server licence under the Server+CAL model. After ordering, you receive the licence information promptly by email. This ensures compliant access to Exchange 2016 and lets you keep an eye on the cost per workstation – especially with shift work, kiosk operation or shared workstations.

Features

• Device CAL for one device: access right for any users via the licensed device.
• For Exchange Server 2016: Can be used with Standard or Enterprise (server licence required separately).
• Server+CAL licensing: Adds the necessary access rights to your existing Exchange installation.
• Ideal for shared desks: Economical for shared PCs, terminals or thin clients.
• Fast delivery: Licence documents arrive directly by email.
• Documented transfer: Legally compliant, traceable licence documentation.
• Flexible licence design: Mixed operation with User CALs possible – can be combined depending on the use case.

Benefits & value

The Device CAL is the right choice when Exchange is accessed from a fixed device and several employees use that device. Instead of licensing each person individually, you license the device – this reduces administrative effort and keeps costs predictable.

The permanent licence needs no subscriptions tied to a term, so your on-premises environment stays independent and stable. Employees access mailboxes, calendars and contacts as usual via Outlook or through the browser using Outlook on the web. This preserves established workflows and meets compliance requirements.

Compatibility & licence notes

For Exchange Server 2016 you need one Device CAL per accessing device – alternatively, you can use one User CAL per person. Which option is more economical depends on how you use it: for shared devices, the Device CAL is recommended; for individual workstations, usually the User CAL. Both CAL types can be combined within an organisation.

This Device CAL covers the standard functions of the Exchange environment. For advanced Enterprise functions, an additional Enterprise CAL may be required; this is licensed additively to the Standard CAL. Important: A CAL is not program software and contains no server software. It grants the right of use to access a licensed Exchange Server 2016 (Standard or Enterprise). Make sure that the CALs and server version match and that a valid server licence is in place.
