Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a difference between the Enterprise CAL Suite and an Enterprise CAL? Is it an important distinction?
Yes. The Enterprise CAL Suite provides rights equivalent to 11 licenses, including Exchange Server Enterprise CAL, Office
SharePoint Server Enterprise CAL, and Office Communications Server Enterprise CAL. Additionally, the Enterprise CAL Suite
provides rights equivalent to other licenses, including System Center Operations Manager Client OML.
Can I apply an Enterprise CAL Suite Step-up to a Core CAL Suite with expired Software Assurance coverage?
No. You must have active Software Assurance to benefit from the ability to migrate lower edition offerings to higher editions
like migrating from the Core CAL Suite to the Enterprise CAL Suite.
If I can step up from the Core CAL Suite to the Enterprise CAL Suite, can I step up from components of the suites into
one of the CAL Suites?
While there are not programmatic step-up licenses from one or more individual components to the full suite, Microsoft will be
providing migration solutions. Please ask your Microsoft Volume Licensing representative for migration options.
Do the Core CAL Suite and Enterprise CAL Suite provide downgrade rights for their equivalent components?
Yes. Unlike use rights for most product suites, the use rights for the Core CAL Suite and Enterprise CAL Suite permit
customers to downgrade components individually. The downgrade rights for the components of the Core CAL Suite and
Enterprise CAL Suite are the same as those for the individual components. For instance, an Enterprise CAL Suite license may
be used to access an Exchange Server 2000 server.
Does the Enterprise CAL Suite provide the right to access all Microsoft Server Products?
No. The Enterprise CAL Suite provides rights equivalent to a broad selection of Microsoft server products to provide
information workers access to functionality, including communication, collaboration, and compliance—presence and
synchronous communications (IM), enterprise content management, information rights management, client security, server
and Web security, client and server real-time monitoring and updates, conferencing, Web-based forms solutions, and business
data connectors. However, the Enterprise CAL Suite does not provide rights equivalent to other CALs, including CRM and
SQL Server™
Will new products be added to the Enterprise CAL Suite in the future?
At this time, Microsoft has not announced plans to add rights equivalent to other CALs into the Enterprise CAL Suite. However,
if a product is added to the Enterprise CAL Suite in the future, licenses with active Software Assurance would receive
equivalent rights.
How does the Enterprise CAL Suite relate to the Enterprise Desktop platform offering?
The Enterprise CAL Suite, the Windows Vista™ Enterprise operating system, and Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 comprise
the Enterprise Desktop platform offering.
Can I license the Enterprise CAL Suite’s components individually?
Yes. All Enterprise CAL Suite components are available individually, though some components have not yet been released.
One noteworthy exception is that System Center management server components cannot be licensed on a per-user basis
outside the suite.
What server editions do CAL suites provide access to? For instance, does the Enterprise CAL Suite provide access
to Exchange Server Standard Edition or Exchange Server Enterprise Edition?
Like other CALs, the Enterprise CAL Suite and Core CAL Suite license access to any edition of a server that requires a CAL.
Therefore, Enterprise CAL Suite and Core CAL Suite license access to both Exchange Server Standard Edition and Exchange
Server Enterprise Edition.
Does the Enterprise CAL Suite include rights to access SQL Server 2005?
No. SQL Server CALs must be obtained separately from the Enterprise CAL Suite or Core CAL Suite.
My Software Assurance cost for Enterprise CAL Suite looks higher than the normal rate. Has Microsoft raised the
cost of Software Assurance?
No. Online Services subscription fees are reflected in the Enterprise CAL Suite’s annual cost, which includes both online
services subscription costs and Software Assurance. These costs are part of both the new and renewal offerings and, as a
result, the relationship between the new and renewal price varies from that normally associated with our License and Software
Assurance offerings.
Yes. The Enterprise CAL Suite provides rights equivalent to 11 licenses, including Exchange Server Enterprise CAL, Office
SharePoint Server Enterprise CAL, and Office Communications Server Enterprise CAL. Additionally, the Enterprise CAL Suite
