Hello,

The only other VISA implementations that I know of beside NI and Agilent 
are:

Tektronix
Bustec  (http://www.bustec.ie)
Kikusui (http://www.kikusui.co.jp)

They probably don't have a full implementation, for example Bustec only 
implemented VXI communication.

Some companies also piggy-back on NI's VISA implementation by just 
adding a passport. Rohde&Schwarz does that.
