Microsoft CAL for Windows Server: Your key to efficient server use
Microsoft Client Access Licenses (CALs) for Windows Server are a critical element for organizations using Windows Server platforms. This article will give you a comprehensive introduction to CALs, how they affect your server usage and how to manage them effectively.
What are Microsoft CALs for Windows Server?
Microsoft CALs are licenses that allow users or devices to access Windows Server services and features. CALs are divided into two main categories:
User CALs (User CALs) User CALs grant a specific user the right to access Windows Server services, regardless of the device being used. This is ideal for users who access the server from different devices.
Device CALs Device CALs grant a specific device the right to access Windows Server services, regardless of which user is using the device. This is useful for shared devices in organizations.

Proper management of CALs is crucial to ensure your organization meets compliance requirements and avoids unnecessary costs. Having the right number of CALs is important to ensure that all users or devices can access Windows Server smoothly.
