Question regarding Microsoft server and terminal server licenses (CAL licence)
Question regarding Microsoft server / terminal server licences (CAL licences).
We would like to host a terminal server setup on a dedicated server, and would like to know what exactly to look for in terms of licencing. We would like to have separate practices (with their own virtual server with a dedicated sql server to them) and a few users to be able to access their server. Our program will be on the terminal server connection, so each user will connect via remote desktop.
We could be looking at up to 8 practices with 50 users.
Which server and which license should we be looking at, as this is new territory for us.
Being Windows partners, do we get any discount or services cheaper?

Thank you for the detailed answer.
You're welcome! :)Glad to help! :)
Unfortunately, we can't answer that question. Microsoft partners can get discounts and special terms, but they depend on what level of partner you are and a number of other factors. You'll need to talk to a MS rep to determine what you qualify for.
