Leading analyst firm Gartner has recognized Zeus Technology with a position in its 2005 Magic Quadrant. The report entitled, 'Magic Quadrant for Application Delivery Products, 2005'1, analyses the ability of vendors around the globe to solve the most pressing application challenges within the enterprise. It reflects that the market for products to improve the delivery of application software over networks remains dynamic and innovative.

Paul Di Leo, CEO at Zeus Technology said: "We believe our position in this industry report recognizes our strength in this ever evolving sector. By constantly improving our technology solutions, we are providing reliability and security to web enabled businesses around the world, and giving customers a seamless online experience. We look forward to further success in 2006, by maximizing the full potential of our technology, expertise and experience".

Through its security, optimization and management capabilities, ZXTM gives businesses centralized control and resilience to applications, providing swift and seamless interaction between web-enabled application services.

2005 has been particularly successful for Zeus, winning awards for ZXTM from around the globe.
