What are the drawbacks of proprietary, non-DVB-RCS VSAT systems?

What is DVB-RCS and why should one consider deploying a VSAT network that is DVB-RCS compliant?

DVB-RCS is the only truly open standard for VSAT systems; it forms a two-way extension of the long-lived DVB-S standard and the recent DVB-S2 standard which are used for satellite broadcast. Several vendors, including SatNet, have invested substantially in DVB-RCS developments in order to produce cost-effective solutions that are in themselves very competitive with non-standard offerings.
