MICROSOFT EXCHANGE SERVER 2019 - 5 PACK DEVICE CAL

5 Pack Device CAL for Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 as used software

For the Standard or Enterprise Edition of Microsoft Exchange Server 2019, in addition to the server license, a separate client access license is required for each end device used to access the server services: The Exchange Server 2019 Device CAL equips a specific registered computer (PC, laptop, etc.) with the appropriate access rights for this purpose.

In accordance with Microsoft license management regulations, a license for Exchange Server 2019 Standard or Enterprise does not include any other user rights, so these must be purchased separately, e.g. in the form of a Device CAL. Users can therefore only use all Exchange Server functions via an end device equipped with them.

Used Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019 Standard and Enterprise are available from Wiresoft at a favorable price - also individually instead of as a package. These used Device CALs have the same functionalities as the Device Client Access Licenses for Exchange Server 2019 offered in the official Microsoft Volume Licensing Program.

Get all the new capabilities of MS Exchange Server 2019 with a pre-owned Device CAL

Windows Exchange Server 2019 runs on Windows Server 2019 Core, providing a reliable platform for enterprise messaging infrastructures. The Standard and Enterprise editions support them even better in shifting the focus from communication to collaboration. The following functions and features are available for this purpose:

• Meta Cache Database (MCDB) secures meta-information such as mailbox folder structures and accelerates access and content search.
• Dynamic Database Cache (DDC) dynamically adjusts storage capacity to make better use of it and increases Exchange Server speed.
• The new search index resides in the database of a mailbox, which greatly simplifies management and increases search speed.
• Windows Server Core allows a standard version of the server system to run more easily. This simplifies configuration and provides greater security against intruders.
• Client Access Rules provide enhanced options for limiting access to the Exchange Server configuration area.
• New calendar enhancements, especially for organizing meetings: including Default End Date, Do Not Forward, Improved Calendar Management, and more options for configuring out-of-office messages.
• Improved document collaboration with the ability to upload and store files on OneDrive for Business.

Overview of the most important Device CALs for Exchange Server Standard and Enterprise Edition 2019 as used software

Device CALs from Wiresoft offered as used software have the same access as corresponding new licenses to use the features available in each of the two Exchange Server 2019 editions. Used Device CALs are an inexpensive option, especially for SMEs and organizations, for equipping the corresponding end devices with an Exchange Server access license, also because this enables customized licensing.

General information about licensing Exchange Server 2019 with CALs

For the Standard and Enterprise editions of Exchange Server 2019, Microsoft License Management offers licensing with a server license plus client access licenses; as mentioned, the server license must be supplemented with licenses for endpoints (or users) so that employees can access email, etc. CALs included in the server license are for IT administrators only and therefore cannot be used for typical services. Only a client access license such as the Device CAL therefore gives an employee the rights to use Exchange Server functions on a Windows-enabled end device. The CAL does not include any additional software other than access rights to the Exchange Server 2019 client/server environment.

What are the benefits of Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019 Standard and Enterprise edition?

CAL-based licensing for the Standard and Enterprise editions of Exchange Server 2019 enables flexible and on-demand management of access rights for the computers used for this purpose. The Microsoft licensing model offers a total of two types of CALs for Exchange Server 2019:

• Device CAL for Exchange Server 2019: applies to one dedicated end device (PC, laptop, tablet, phone) server access rights at a time
• User CAL for Exchange Server 2019: applies to one dedicated user at a time

Different usage options for Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019 Standard and Enterprise

The Standard and Enterprise editions for Exchange Server 2019 differ primarily in terms of the scalability of mailbox requirements. However, it is in principle possible to use the functionality of the Enterprise edition with a Device CAL authorized for the Standard edition - but then only a correspondingly smaller number of mailbox databases is available, and also only the limited standard functionality. In contrast, Device CALs for the Enterprise Edition have an extended range of functions.

Note version compatibility for Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019!

A Device CAL for the Exchange Server 2019 editions not only equips the respective end device with the access rights for this version, it also authorizes access to older Exchange versions such as 2016 (downgrade). This gives the Device CAL 2019 an advantage over older Device CAL versions, which are valid for the corresponding previous version of Exchange Server, but which cannot be used to access the Exchange Server 2019 version (upgrade).

Although there are currently no more recent Device CALs for Exchange Server than the 2019 version, it is always advisable to pay attention to the compatibility of the server license and client access license when purchasing, as well as the edition-specific functionalities included.

What should be considered when licensing Exchange Server 2019 with a used Device CAL?

As mentioned earlier, a Device CAL equips a single endpoint (device) with access rights to Exchange Server 2019. Once the registration of the computer has been completed, the Device CAL can no longer be transferred to another end device. It is also not possible to change the CAL type and use a Device CAL as a User CAL.

These restrictions in Microsoft license management are intended to prevent any improper access to Exchange Server 2019 services. In this way, they offer greater security for a company and its communications, as foreign or unlicensed end devices cannot access emails and other server data.

What are the differences between Device CALs and User CALs for Exchange Server 2019?

Basically, the Device CAL for Exchange Server 2019 does not differ from the User CAL in terms of functionality. The difference is in the benefits that the respective type of access to the Exchange Server has. In addition, there is the number and the equipment of the workstations in a company as well as the workflow in which users access the Exchange Server: In some SMEs, for example, different employees share a single end device in order to alternately access the Exchange Server and call e-mails, etc., while in other companies users access it for this purpose via completely different end devices.

A Windows-enabled endpoint with a Device CAL authorized for access can be considered to be used by any employee who has permission to use Exchange services. If the licensed end device is mobile, e.g. a laptop or tablet, the respective user can also use it to access the Exchange server locally independently - e.g. on the road or in the home office - via Internet access. The Device CAL thus also offers mobile usage options.

Conclusion on Device CALs

Which type of client access license for Exchange Server 2019 offers more advantages for use in a company can therefore differ from case to case. In addition to the number of employees who use Exchange Server for communication, the predominant type of access via existing end devices must also be considered in relation to this: If several employees regularly share a specific end device - whether mobile or standalone - and use it alternately to access the Exchange Server, e.g. in shift work, Device CAL offers more advantages.

Whether licensing with Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019 is more favorable than that of User CALs, because fewer licenses are then required, therefore results from the typical company workflow. Therefore, its knowledge should form the basis for the choice of CAL when purchasing used client access licenses for Exchange Server 2019.

Device CALs for Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 already available from a single license in the Wiresoft Online Shop

Info about the origin of Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019 as used software from Wiresoft

All Device CALs for Exchange Server 2019 offered as used at Wiresoft are original licenses, as they are also offered within the Microsoft licensing program; unlike these, CALs from Wiresoft are former part of a Device volume license for Exchange Server 2019 purchased by the previous owner, a company. Individual Device access licenses or the complete Device volume license were resold by the latter to Wiresoft and the volume licenses were dissolved into individual licenses. These Device CALs are thus labeled as used software. However, despite the new labeling as used licenses, they can be used like a new license for access to Exchange Server 2019, because they do not differ from them in terms of restrictions in functionality or duration of use.
