Domenico,

a user is a person, a device is a client-pc or -pda etc.

A Device CAL permits one device (used by any user) to access or use the
server software. A User CAL permits one user (using any device) to access or
use the server software.

Regards

Oliver

That depends.
If you have more users than clients (like in a classroom or
multiple shift situation, where several people connect to the TS
from shared workstations), then Per Device licensing is cheaper.

If you have more clients than users (users connect from multiple
clients, i.e their office PC, a laptop and their home PC), then Per
User licensing is cheaper.
