CALs
With this license type, a CAL is required for each user or device that accesses the server
software. There are two types of CALs for Exchange, both of which work with either edition
of the server:
Standard: designed to help users be more productive from virtually any platform, browser,
or mobile device, with new features in Exchange Server 2013 that help manage
communications overload and lower helpdesk costs. To enable Standard CAL features for a
user, the user must be licensed with the Standard CAL.
Enterprise: designed to allow organizations to reduce the cost and complexity of meeting
compliance requirements with new integrated archiving functionality and information
protection capabilities, while also helping you cut costs by replacing legacy voice mail
systems with Unified Messaging. The Enterprise CAL is sold as an add-on to the Standard
CAL—to enable Enterprise CAL features, the user must be licensed with one Standard CAL
plus one Enterprise CAL.
The Exchange Enterprise CAL is available in two variants: with and without services. The
following table provides a detailed feature breakdown for each CAL.
