About windows server at Server Hub

Server Hub supplies genuine Windows Server 2025 and 2022 licences — Standard editions, User and Device CALs, and hardware-tied ROK kits — at South African prices in rand, with local support.

Licensing Windows Server catches people out: you licence every physical core (minimum 16), then add a CAL for each user or device that connects, and Remote Desktop needs its own CALs on top. Buying the server too? A refurbished or new server with a matching ROK licence is the cheapest route. Send us the server spec and user count and we will quote the exact licences.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Windows Server 2025 cost in South Africa?

You need one Standard licence covering all physical cores (minimum 16) plus a CAL for every user or device that connects. Server Hub prices the Standard editions, CAL packs and ROK kits in rand — the live table on this page shows each one.

Is Windows Server 2025 free?

No. Windows Server is commercial software licensed per core plus CALs. There is a free 180-day evaluation for testing, but production use requires a paid licence. Server Hub supplies genuine licences with local support.

What is a CAL and do I need one?

A Client Access Licence permits one user or one device to connect to your Windows Server. You buy the server licence once, then a CAL for each user (User CAL) or device (Device CAL). Remote Desktop and some other roles need their own additional CALs.

What is a ROK licence?

A Reseller Option Kit is a Windows Server licence pre-configured for a specific server brand (Dell, HPE, Lenovo), cheaper than retail but tied to that hardware. Good value when you buy the server and OS together.
