Just a note - the Bandwidth Management market is much bigger than the VPN market by itself. CHKPF is the only company addressing both of them. No other company offers as good an integration story than CHKPF. Bandwidth Management does not mean just QoS. A good bandwidth management product also does QoS but there are lots of QoS products that don't do good bandwidth management. FloodGate-1 does both.

Also CHKPF is targeted at the enterprise where most of the large corporations have huge investments in private WAN links and they will remain private. This is where they need FloodGate-1.

In addition, CHKPF's FloodGate-1 does both Bandwidth Management and Latency control which is critical for Voice (latency dependant). A good Bandwidth Management product must control latency and bandwidth. The rest of CHKPF's competitors don't do this well or don't do it at all.

CHKPF understands this market better than anyone else.
