can't see how any CAT tool licence would actually increase your client base. Increase you work load maybe...
Up till now, I haven't met anyone who asked for a specific CAT tool purely because that was strictly necessary (= format not available in any other). Obviously this may have been the case even only 5 years ago, but now I presume everything is more or less compatible with everything else in some way or other, you only need to know how.
Usually those who request a tool just mean they want you to use one. And if they want you to work on a server, they'll hand you a temporary licence.
Otherwise having two tools is a waste of money, IMHO. Unless you want to check it out or you are an agency, obviously. If anything, you'll be quicker.
