Coyote Point Systems announced the launch of three upgraded products as part of its Equalizer GX family of load balancing and application acceleration appliances. Built on new hardware and software architectures, the Equalizer GX family provides up to 400 percent performance gains compared to its predecessor.

Coyote Point's Equalizer GX family is comprised of three appliances, the Equalizer 350GX, 450GX and 650GX, each optimized for particular midmarket environments.

“We like to describe ourselves as enabling a faster, more balanced application experience,” says Coyote Point’s director of marketing, Jim Puchbauer. “We are trying to provide 100 percent of what 90 percent of the market needs. If it’s not affordable, reliable and useable, you’re really not in midmarket play.”

Puchbauer says the spread of features from the lowest-cost appliance, the 350GX, to the 650GX, allows midmarket companies to purchase technology they need without breaking the budget or overwhelming IT staff. He attributes the second solution to the newly redesigned graphical user interface (GUI). “This is one of the reasons we’ve found success in the midmarket--we make it truly easy to use,” he says. “You don’t need a PhD in acceleration and load balancing to run this.”
