Used Microsoft Windows Server licenses
Just as Microsoft Windows is the operating system for computers, Windows Server is an operating system specially designed for servers, which provides IT services and resources company-wide. Thanks to the graphical user interface, the operating system allows users a particularly uncomplicated administration effort, which is particularly beneficial for small to medium-sized companies with their usually rather small IT departments.
However, the purchase of new Microsoft server software represents a not inconsiderable financial burden. If you still want to set up a reliable IT infrastructure, you can buy used Microsoft Windows Server from Soft & Cloud and take advantage of the enormous savings potential!

The prices for Windows Server licenses depend on which version of Microsoft Windows Server you want to buy/use. Older versions of Microsoft Windows Server software, such as 2016 or 2019, are cheaper than the current Windows Server 2022. You can buy all versions second-hand as a standard version or with data center functionalities at a reasonable price. In addition to Windows Server licenses, you can also obtain used access licenses (CAL) from us, either as a user or device CAL.
Yes, this was clearly clarified in rulings by the European Court of Justice (2012) and the Federal Court of Justice (from 2013 and 2014). According to these rulings, the exclusive right of the software manufacturer (e.g. Microsoft) to distribute a licensed copy ends with the initial purchase. The purchaser becomes the legal owner with the purchase of a (new or used) license. This also includes the buyer's right to resell his license if the software is no longer used/needed. At Soft & Cloud, we ensure legally compliant license transfer with a TÜVIT-certified process. You can also buy used Windows Server licenses from us at particularly low prices.
Licenses for Microsoft Windows Server are valid indefinitely. This also applies to used licenses, which you can buy from Soft & Cloud at significantly lower prices than directly from Microsoft. However, you should also take the EOL (End of Life) into account when making your purchase decision; this is the period in which Microsoft releases functional and security updates for your Windows Server version. Once this period has expired, you can of course continue to use the software. However, security vulnerabilities etc. that occur or are discovered after the EOL will no longer be patched.
You need a sufficient number of licenses to operate Windows servers. In addition, access licenses (Client Access Licenses; CAL) are required, which are available either as User CAL or Device CAL. A User CAL authorizes server access by one user with any number of end devices. A Device CAL provides an end device with access rights to the Windows server. The device can then be used by any number of users.
You need a separate license for Windows Server (Standard or Datacenter) for each physical and active core in the server. This gives you two virtualization rights for a standard server and unlimited VM rights for a data center server. You can use our free Windows Server license calculator to quickly and reliably determine how many licenses you need.
