The Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 Standard Device CAL (Client Access License) is intended for businesses that want to license access to Exchange Server on a per-device basis. It grants one device—used by multiple employees—the ability to connect to Exchange services, including email, calendars, contacts, and tasks. This model is especially effective for organizations where multiple users share a single workstation or device, helping to reduce licensing costs while ensuring reliable access to communication tools.

Key Benefits for Businesses

• Cost-Effective for Shared Devices
  Ideal for environments such as offices, labs, or kiosks where multiple users access Exchange from the same machine.
  
  
• Secure Access
  Enables authorized use of Exchange services while maintaining the built-in security, encryption, and compliance features of Exchange Server.
  
  
• Streamlined Licensing
  A simple way to manage access by device rather than by user, reducing complexity in specific business scenarios.
  
  
• Seamless Collaboration
  Supports access to professional email, shared calendars, and contacts, keeping teams connected and productive.
  
  
• Scalable for Business Growth
  Additional Device CALs can be added as more devices are introduced, supporting expansion without disrupting operations.
  
  
• Integration with Outlook
  Works smoothly with Microsoft Outlook, giving employees a consistent and user-friendly experience across the organization.
