Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a User CAL and a Device CAL?
A User CAL allows a single named user to access Windows Server from any number of devices, making it ideal for employees who work from multiple computers or locations. A Device CAL licenses a single device for access by any number of users.
Do these CALs work with older versions of Windows Server?
Yes, Windows Server 2025 CALs provide downgrade rights and can be used to access Windows Server 2025 or any previous version of Windows Server.
Do I still need a Windows Server license in addition to these CALs?
Yes. CALs do not include a server license. You must have a separately licensed Windows Server 2025 Standard or Datacenter installation, and then each user or device accessing that server needs a CAL.
How can I verify that this is a genuine Microsoft license?
Genuine Windows Server CALs are branded by Microsoft only. Purchase from authorized resellers and verify the product key through Microsoft's Volume Licensing Service Center or your Microsoft account to ensure authenticity.
