Remote Desktop Services CAL
Remote Desktop Services CALs: Scalable Licensing Solutions for Modern Businesses
In today’s digital workplace, reliable remote access is no longer optional; it’s essential. That’s where Remote Desktop Services (RDS) Client Access Licenses (CALs) come into play. Whether you’re supporting a remote workforce, running virtual desktops, or enabling secure external access to critical applications, having the right RDS CALs ensures your IT environment runs smoothly and remains fully licensed.
At Softwareindustrie24, we provide a full range of Microsoft Remote Desktop Services CALs to meet your organization’s remote access and licensing needs securely, affordably, and efficiently.
What Are Remote Desktop Services CALs?
Remote Desktop Services CALs are licenses that grant users or devices permission to connect to a Windows Server with Remote Desktop functionality. These licenses are required when your organization uses Microsoft Remote Desktop Services (RDS) to deliver desktops and apps to employees working remotely or across different devices.
Choose the Right CALs for Your Setup
At Softwareindustrie24, we offer two main types of RDS CALs:
User CALs
A User CAL is assigned to a specific user, allowing them to access the remote desktop environment from any device, whether it’s a desktop at the office, a laptop at home, or a mobile device on the go. Perfect for businesses with mobile or remote teams.
Device CALs
A Device CAL is tied to a specific device, regardless of how many people use it. This option works best in environments like call centers, labs, or shift-based setups where multiple users access the same machine.
Available Versions
We carry RDS CALs for all major versions of Microsoft Windows Server, including:
Whether you’re maintaining legacy systems or upgrading to the latest infrastructure, we’ve got you covered.
Key Requirements for Using RDS CALs
To deploy Remote Desktop Services successfully, make sure the following are in place:
- Correct Licensing: Purchase the right number and type of CALs based on users or devices accessing the RDS environment.
- Compatible Infrastructure: Ensure your server environment supports the CAL version you’re using.
- Ongoing Compliance: Stay current with licensing rules and Microsoft’s support lifecycle.
Properly licensing your remote desktop setup is essential for both security and productivity. RDS CALs enable seamless, secure access to virtual desktops and hosted applications from anywhere.

Need help deciding which CALs are right for you? Our team is here to guide you every step of the way.
Upgrade When It’s Time
Older versions of RDS CALs eventually reach their end of life (EOL) and may no longer receive updates or support from Microsoft. To stay secure and compliant, we recommend upgrading to a supported version. Our licensing specialists can assist you with a seamless upgrade strategy that keeps your remote infrastructure secure and future-ready.
