It's crazy that there is no easy way to find out what Edition (SKU) of SharePoint 2013 are you running. To find out, you have to dig the registry:

  • Open Regedit
  • Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\15.0\WSS\InstalledProducts
  • Compare the guids with these:

C5D855EE-F32B-4A1C-97A8-F0A28CE02F9C -- SharePoint Server 2013

CBF97833-C73A-4BAF-9ED3-D47B3CFF51BE -- SharePoint Server 2013 Preview

B7D84C2B-0754-49E4-B7BE-7EE321DCE0A9 -- SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise

298A586A-E3C1-42F0-AFE0-4BCFDC2E7CD0 -- SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise Preview

D6B57A0D-AE69-4A3E-B031-1F993EE52EDC -- Microsoft Office Web Apps Server 2013

9FF54EBC-8C12-47D7-854F-3865D4BE8118 -- SharePoint Foundation 2013

You can use powershell too

Open SharePoint Powershell with Run as administrator Run this command: 

get-spfarm | select BuildVersion

Thanks Naim Murati.

If it's up and working, or just a webserver running SharePoint and you don't have access to console/admin/registry or s.th. else, just good ol' browser, you might add _vti_pvt/service.cnf after your base SharePoint-URL to determine the version number.

You'll get something like this:

vti_encoding:SR|utf8-xx
vti_extenderversion:SR|15.x.x.x

And Versionmapping... As far as I remember (please correct me if incorrect): 

v12.x = SP2007/WSS
v14.x = SP2010
v15.x and higher = SP2013

Dunno the one for SP2007 anymore.

Just had to figure this out and found this answer is missing here, though you might (?) not be able to get more insight, just the general version (as said, please correct me if it's more specific, in the comments).

Edit: Here you can find the exact Version numbers from SP2007 to SP2013: http://blog.fpweb.net/what-sharepoint-version-am-i-using/#.VBlbNucv-9Y (you have to scroll a bit, just under the mid of the article).

open SharePoint Management shell and type command

(Get-SPFarm).Products

you will get the GUIDs. Find your GUID from below list. That will be your installed SharePoint version
