My company makes yearly payments toward the licensing costs attached to the solution. My company's clients, who have paid for the licensing costs attached to the solution, have also engaged with some third parties to receive technical support for the product.

The hardware is expensive but it has very rich virtualization features that make it economical. You can have many VMs hosted on a single box.
