Join nowImagine your team could work from anywhere, on any device, with the full power of your corporate applications at their fingertips — without ever installing a single program locally. That is the reality Windows Server 2019 Remote Desktop Services (RDS) User Client Access Licenses (CALs) unlock. This 10-pack of RDS User CALs is not just a license; it is the key to a secure, manageable, and cost-effective remote working infrastructure. It is designed for organisations that have embraced mobile working, hot-desking, or BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policies, where a single named user needs to access their personalised corporate desktop and applications from multiple devices — a company laptop, a home PC, or even a tablet.
The core benefit is simple: one license per user, unlimited device flexibility. Unlike Device CALs that lock a license to a specific machine, a User CAL follows the named individual. This makes it the ideal choice for shift workers, consultants, sales teams, and any employee who is not permanently tethered to a single desk. This is a perpetual license, meaning it is a one-time purchase that does not expire, providing long-term value and predictable IT budgeting. It legally enables a named user to connect to a Windows Server 2019 session host for a full desktop experience, a published RemoteApp, or a personal virtual desktop, ensuring your data remains secure in the data centre, not on vulnerable endpoints.
When you purchase the Windows Server 2019 RDS 10 User CAL from Lizensa, you are acquiring a genuine, legally binding license agreement, not just a technical activation key. The transaction is transparent and designed for immediate use.
You will receive a digital delivery package containing your unique license key, a comprehensive activation guide, and a VAT invoice. The license type is a volume-license model, typically provided as a Multiple Activation Key (MAK) or via a Key Management Service (KMS) setup, depending on your organisation's size and infrastructure. Our team will clarify the exact type upon delivery to ensure it aligns with your environment. This is a perpetual license with no expiry date, granting you the right to use this version in perpetuity.
The activation process involves installing the Remote Desktop Services role on your Windows Server 2019, installing the RDS Licensing role, and activating the license server with the key we provide. Our guide walks you through this step-by-step. Crucially, this license requires that you already have a Windows Server 2019 base license and the corresponding standard Windows Server CALs for each user. The RDS CAL is an additive license that unlocks the advanced remote desktop features.
Choosing between an RDS User CAL and a Device CAL is a foundational decision for your remote access infrastructure. The wrong choice can lead to unnecessary expense and administrative overhead. This product is an RDS User CAL, and understanding its distinct advantages is key.
In summary, choose User CALs when your users are mobile and use multiple devices. Choose Device CALs when your devices are fixed and used by multiple users. For most modern, flexible working environments, the RDS User CAL provides the greatest flexibility and long-term value.
This product is a license key and does not have hardware requirements in the traditional sense. However, it is critical to understand the environmental prerequisites for successful deployment. The license is only compatible with a Windows Server environment and is not supported on macOS or Linux server platforms.
Your journey to a fully functional RDS environment begins immediately after purchase. Lizensa’s automated system processes your order instantly, and your license key and instructions are delivered by email in under 60 seconds on average. No waiting for physical shipments.
The activation is a two-part process. First, you install the Remote Desktop Licensing role on a server in your domain. Second, you use the provided key to activate the RDS Licensing Server with Microsoft. Once activated, the license server will automatically issue RDS CALs to your configured users when they connect. Our included guide provides clear, illustrated steps for this process.
If you encounter any issues, our multilingual technical support team is available free of charge to assist you. The license is perpetual, and you can reinstall the RDS Licensing role on the same server hardware if needed. For major hardware changes or migration to new servers, please contact our support team to ensure a smooth reactivation process.

A standard Windows Server CAL grants a user or device the right to access a Windows Server in general (for file sharing, printing, etc.). An RDS CAL is an additional license required specifically for accessing the advanced Remote Desktop Services functionality, such as a full remote desktop or RemoteApp. You need both a standard CAL and an RDS CAL for each user using RDS.
Our delivery is virtually instant. On average, the email containing your license key, invoice, and activation guide arrives in under 60 seconds after your payment is confirmed. You can begin the activation process immediately.
Absolutely. Every license sold by Lizensa is 100% genuine and sourced from authorized European distributors. You will receive a valid activation key and a full VAT invoice, providing a complete audit trail for your software asset management and compliance records.
We provide free, multilingual technical support to all our customers. If you encounter any difficulties during the installation of the RDS Licensing role or the activation of the key, our expert team is available to guide you through the process until it is successfully resolved.
The license is perpetual and can be reactivated on the same server hardware if you need to reinstall the operating system. Transferring a volume license to entirely new hardware may be possible but often requires contacting our support team to assist with the Microsoft activation process.
Yes, the license is valid for activation on a server within the EU. The named users covered by the User CAL can then connect to that server from anywhere in the world, provided they have a network connection and the Remote Desktop client.

As an EU-based retailer, we fully comply with EU consumer protection law. This provides you with a 14-day right of withdrawal from the date of purchase, offering a clear and enforceable refund guarantee that provides significant peace of mind.
A single RDS User CAL licenses one named user to access RDS resources from an unlimited number of devices. The user could use a desktop PC, a laptop, a home computer, and a mobile device, all covered under the same single license.
No. Windows Server includes two built-in licenses for up to two concurrent administrative Remote Desktop sessions for management purposes. RDS CALs are required when you want to allow non-administrative users to connect for running productivity applications, hosting a shared desktop environment, or using VDI.
