Hehe... none that I can imagine. Infact they're wasting resources on developers to develop dialers and protocols. They could just have used the cyberoam client and protocol. But I guess Sify simply loves doing things the hard way ;-)

No...its a perfectly formulated strategy. Cyberoam client is quite decent as compared to sify client. The sify client gives the ISP ( sify ) a lot of control over the user's activities eg. they can modify *your* firewall rules remotely by instructing their client. I think BBImpSec is the module which does that. There are several other "features" which resemble that of a RAT than a simple authentication client ;).
