BANDWIDTH MANAGER 2.1 - ADVANTAGES

Not long ago Internet use consisted mainly of viewing comparatively simple web pages and using email. In those times clients would require a limited, easy to predict amount of bandwidth. But times are changing. Currently movies, music, large pieces of software, and other large chunks of data flow to Internet users across the world, burdening their ISPs with huge loads of traffic.

The heart of the problem is that nowadays the amount of traffic generated by different clients could be very different, even if they are signed up for the same type of service (i.e. dial in, or DSL). If an ISP chooses to price its services based on an average amount of traffic, generated by customers, this ISP will allow its heavy traffic users to take advantage of its light traffic users. Yet many traffic users may not be willing to tolerate that, and leave.

Using Bandwidth Manager, an ISP no longer needs to bunch all of its users together. Instead, it can create different plans supporting different amounts of traffic and target those plans toward different kinds of customers. Thus Bandwidth Manager will help you serve your customers better, and provide them with the service they want for the best suitable price.
