Device CAL vs User CAL vs Core License — Which Do You Need?
Device CAL: Tied to a specific device — any user on that device can access SQL Server. Best for shared workstations, kiosks, or shift-based environments where multiple users share one machine.
User CAL: Tied to a specific user — they can access SQL Server from any device. Best for employees with their own dedicated devices.
Core License: No CALs needed — unlimited users and devices can connect. Best for internet-facing applications or large user bases where CAL counting is impractical.
Who Is This For?
Ideal for businesses running shared workstations, manufacturing floors, retail POS systems, or any environment where multiple users share a single device to access SQL Server 2022.
