July 13th 2009 InstaGate 604 receives "Reviewer's Choice" in the US Government Computer News review.

Today Kilross Network Protection announced that the eSoft InstaGate 604 was reviewed by the US Government Computer News and received high marks and "Reviewer's Choice".

In an article entitled, "eSoft security appliance covers the network, InstaGate's modular approach lets you add functionality as needed," associate technology analyst Greg Crowe noted that the "InstaGate would be ideal for a network administrator who needs to consolidate several network security functions in one appliance" and that the "InstaGate's true beauty is the modularity of its optional functions".

eSoft's InstaGate was designed and built from the ground up to be easy to set up, easy to manage, and to provide best-of-class security and reporting. The setup wizard is the easiest in the industry, complete with a full suite of tests to confirm that network settings are correct, and online help to assist non-technical administrators. The InstaGate 604 is also the only appliance in its class to have an interactive LCD display for changing common network settings with ease.

The article available here, highlighted the well roundedness of the InstaGate 604, including comments on:

  • Ease of use -- "Easy to setup and maintain"; "InstaGate had the easiest setup of any gateway appliance we have tested."
  • A robust feature set -- "The firewall functions are what you would expect from a good, enterprise-level system"; "A full-function virtual private network server also is part of InstaGate's basic functionality, allowing for secure, remote access by a network's users."
  • Standards support -- "Because the InstaGate uses industry-standard IP Security protocols, it can communicate ably with existing VPNs."
  • Overview of threats -- "ThreatMonitor does the best job we've seen at displaying network security at a glance."
