Microsoft Project Server User CAL

A Microsoft Project Server client access license (CAL) gives a user the right to access the services of Project Server or Project Portfolio Server. Any application that accesses the services of Project Server or Project Portfolio Server requires a CAL, including Project Professional, Project Web Access, SharePoint sites with Web Parts that display project information, Microsoft Office Outlook integration with the COM add-in, and third-party applications. Users with a Project Server CAL can view and update project information from Project Server or Project Portfolio Server through the web portal, Project Web Access.

This user CAL authorizes a user to access the services of Project Server or Project Portfolio Server from any device (for example, when an employee accesses the server from a computer at work and another at home).

Device CALs are also available. A device CAL authorizes one computer to access the services of Project Server, regardless of the number of users (for example, a shared workstation).
