Zeus Technology, the acknowledged leader in Internet infrastructure solutions, today announced that Broadband-Testing, Europe's foremost independent network testing facility for broadband and network infrastructure products has officially approved Zeus Extensible Traffic Manager (ZXTM), commenting "ignore Zeus at your peril".
Broadband-Testing offers extensive labs, demo and conference facilities from their base in the south of France. Alongside their specialist IT, networking and development services, Broadband Testing operates an Approval scheme which enables products to be short-listed for purchase by end-users, based on their successful approval.
In a comprehensive report Steve Broadhead, founder of Broadband-Testing evaluated ZXTM by creating a series of tests based around real-world scenarios, real applications and real data. Whilst diverse and extremely challenging, the tests concluded that ZXTM adds real intelligence to the network at an affordable price point, a software solution that would benefit not only large enterprises but any business with two or more servers.
"Zeus has come to the market with a full-function product - as it stands currently with the most extensive inspection 'engine' available - that can be matched to a wide range of servers to give you the performance levels applicable to your needs," commented Steve Broadhead. "The test scenarios we created here are equally applicable to a huge range of scenarios network managers would deal with on a daily basis. In each case, configuration took just a few minutes, the GUI is very easy to work with but also very resilient. We experienced no problems whatsoever during the testing."
He concluded, "Zeus is bringing an interesting proposition to the market and one that you would be mad to ignore, given its price:feature set ratio. And for those layer 7 traffic management product vendors already out there - ignore Zeus at your peril."
Steve Palmer, VP of Marketing at Zeus, commented, "The tests carried out by Broadband Testing prove that ZXTM leads the way in intelligent application-centric traffic management. The power and flexibility of ZXTM enables users to enhance their systems in a way simply not possible with other layer 4-7 traffic management solutions."
