Windows Server 2012 User CAL
Description
Microsoft Windows Server 2012 User CAL: The flexible access licence for your employees
Ensure your IT environment is correctly licensed with a Microsoft Windows Server 2012 User CAL. This Client Access Licence (CAL) is not software, but an official access entitlement that is tied to a specific user (one employee). It is a mandatory requirement for access to basic server services such as file shares or printing. Buy your official perpetual licence from Vollversion-Software and ensure audit-proof licensing for every employee in your business.
What is a Windows Server User CAL?
The User CAL is the best choice for organisations whose employees work flexibly and use several devices. The principle is "One user, many devices".
- User-based licensing: You assign the licence to an employee, not to one of their devices.
- Maximum flexibility: The licensed employee can access the server services from all their devices – office PC, laptop used for working from home, tablet, smartphone.
- Ideal for mobile working: The perfect solution for field staff and employees who are not tied to a fixed workstation.
Licence packs for businesses of every size
We make licence management simple. This User CAL is available individually and in cost-efficient packs for 5, 10, 25 or 50 users.
For computers that are used by several people in shifts (e.g. a PC in the workshop), we recommend the device-based Windows Server 2012 Device CAL as a potentially cheaper alternative.

Important note on licence management
Unlike RDS CALs, standard Windows Server CALs are not installed or managed through software on the server. Licensing relies on trust (the "honour system"). Your proof of purchase (invoice and licence key) serves as evidence of correct licensing in the event of a check by Microsoft.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between this standard User CAL and an RDS User CAL?
The standard User CAL only covers basic access to the server (e.g. file and print services). If a user also needs to access a terminal server (Remote Desktop Services), they also need an "RDS User CAL".
We have 15 employees who all use laptops and PCs. What do we need?
You need 15 Windows Server 2012 User CALs. The best option would be to buy one pack of 10 and one pack of 5. That way, every employee is correctly licensed, regardless of how many devices they use.
Where on the server do I need to enter the licence key?
Nowhere. Standard CALs serve solely as legal proof of licensing. They are not installed or activated on the server. You must keep your proof of purchase safe.
We have a server running Windows Server 2012 R2. Do these CALs work for it?
Yes, a Windows Server 2012 CAL can also be used to access a server running the "R2" version.
Are these CALs compatible with Windows Server 2008 or 2016?
They are backward-compatible, but not forward-compatible. This means you can use a 2012 CAL to access a server running Server 2012 or 2008 R2. However, to access a server running Server 2016, you need at least a 2016 CAL.
