Buy Exchange Server 2013 CAL – Client Access License for legacy infrastructures at a low price

Anyone currently running Exchange Server 2013 needs a Client Access License (CAL) for every user or device that accesses the Exchange Server. The Exchange Server 2013 CAL is the right access license for existing Exchange 2013 infrastructures—it’s affordable, verified, and backward-compatible with older versions of Exchange Server. At Lizenzindustrie, you’ll receive your CALs immediately via email—legally compliant and at an affordable price.

Recommendation: Since Microsoft discontinued support for Exchange Server 2013 in April 2023 and newer CAL versions are also valid for older Exchange versions, we recommend purchasing a newer CAL version even for existing Exchange 2013 infrastructures. An Exchange Server 2016 CAL or Exchange Server 2019 CAL is also valid for Exchange Server 2013 and, at the same time, enables future migration without having to purchase a new CAL.

Standard CAL or Enterprise CAL – which is the right choice?

Exchange Server 2013 CALs are available in two versions:

Exchange Server 2013 Standard CAL – The Standard CAL grants access to all basic Exchange 2013 features: email, calendar, contacts, tasks, Outlook Web App, ActiveSync for mobile devices, and IMAP/POP3 access. For most employees in typical work environments, the Standard CAL is perfectly sufficient and the more cost-effective choice.

Exchange Server 2013 Enterprise CAL – The Enterprise CAL is an extension license to the Standard CAL and requires it as a prerequisite. Enterprise CALs expand the feature set to include in-place archiving, advanced compliance features such as in-place hold, advanced eDiscovery, and unified messaging. Enterprise CALs are primarily relevant for users in regulated industries and for companies with strict compliance requirements.

Exchange Server 2013 CAL – Compatibility with Other Exchange Versions

• ✔ Exchange Server 2013
• ✔ Exchange Server 2010
• ✔ All older Exchange Server versions
• ✗ Exchange Server 2016 – requires an Exchange Server 2016 CAL or newer
• ✗ Exchange Server 2019 – requires an Exchange Server 2019 CAL

Recommendation: Future-proof your setup with a newer CAL version

Since newer Exchange Server CALs are also valid for older versions, it’s worth considering more recent CAL versions even for existing Exchange 2013 infrastructures:

• Exchange Server 2016 CAL – Also valid for Exchange Server 2013. The most affordable future-proof option up to Exchange Server 2016.
• Exchange Server 2019 CAL – Also valid for Exchange Server 2013. The best choice for companies planning to migrate to Exchange Server 2019 in the long term.
