Description
SQL Server Device CAL as a used volume license. Licenses a single device to access SQL Server in the Server + CAL model, regardless of how many people work on it.
When the Device CAL is the right form
Wherever several people share one device: shift work in production and warehouse, checkout stations, terminals in the workshop, workstations in the hospital. A device used by three shifts needs a single Device CAL instead of three User CALs.
Indirect access counts too
Anyone who accesses the database through an intermediate application, a reporting tool or a web interface also needs a client access license. This multiplexing rule is regularly invoked in audits. User and Device CALs may be mixed within the same company - before the order, we compare the more economical split for you.

Frequently asked questions about this offer
Why is no price shown here?
Because the price depends on the quantity and on the individual purchase. Tell us the quantity you need and you will receive a written quote with volume tiers and a binding validity period.
Is this license technically identical to a new one?
Yes. It is the same software with the same features and the same updates, for as long as the version is in support. The difference lies solely in how it was acquired, not in the product.
Which documents do I receive?
The license agreement in your company's name, the transfer declaration covering your quantity, the previous owner's deletion confirmation and evidence of the chain of title. These documents are part of the delivery and cost nothing extra.
What happens if the quantity I need is unavailable?
Then we tell you before you start planning. The shortfall can often be sourced at short notice; where that is not realistic, we suggest an alternative or advise against it. We do not make commitments we cannot keep.
Do I need additional client access licenses (CALs)?
For server products, usually yes; for desktop software, no. What applies in this case is shown in the license details above. Tell us the number of users or devices and we will work out the requirement with you.
