MS Windows Server External Connector - Software assurance - 1 server, unlimited clients - VOL - Open Business
Windows Server system is a comprehensive, integrated, and interoperable server infrastructure designed to meet the demanding needs of developers and IT professionals, and to flexibly run the programs and solutions that enable information workers to reach, analyze, and share information quickly and easily. The External Connector license (EC) can be purchased to enable access to your servers instead of buying individual Windows CALs for external users (or their devices). The EC license is purchased for every copy of the Windows server software that is accessible to the external user. An example of an external user is a person who is not an employee or similar personnel of the company or its affiliates. Companies can purchase Windows CALs for entities not owned by them - for example, business partners - in order to give those entities access to their networks and terminal servers. This may be the best solution when a small number of business partners or customers need access to a server or group of servers. LICENSE DESCRIPTION Microsoft Open License is a software volume licensing program designed for corporate, government, charity, and academic customers who order as few as five licenses. After the initial order, customers can benefit from volume pricing for all licenses for the remainder of the term of their Open License authorization number. Open License Business offers savings on estimated retail prices by placing an initial order for five or more licenses or one server processor license. With Open License Business, customers can combine any set of Microsoft products to qualify for the five-license minimum. SOFTWARE ASSURANCE Microsoft's Software Assurance gives you automatic access to new technology and provides productivity benefits, support, tools, and training to help deploy and use software efficiently. With Software Assurance, you receive access to new versions of licensed software released during the term of your agreement to deploy at your own pace. New Version Rights simplifies the procurement process and shortens the business process cycle, allowing you to reduce the costs associated with acquiring new version releases and immediately take advantage of the latest technology. Software Assurance offers greater flexibility in managing technology expenditures by allowing you to spread payments annually. This allows you to reduce initial costs and forecast annual software budget requirements up to three years in advance.
