(NASDAQ:NTGR) is introducing the NETGEAR Insight™ solution, a revolutionary new way to instantly discover, configure, and continuously monitor and manage your network of NETGEAR Wi-Fi access points, switches and storage devices.

The new NETGEAR Insight app management solution is the answer to the once diverse landscape of network management tools. The Insight app allows for easy multi-device configuration and instant management of your Insight Managed switches, wireless access points and network storage— from wherever you can connect to the internet. The NETGEAR Insight app is free to download from the Apple® App Store? and Google Play™, and is also offering instant registration of any NETGEAR Business product, and provides a unified, single-pane-of-glass view of your NETGEAR network devices with easy access to both product information and support. “At NETGEAR, we have designed our products with the small business owner in mind. With limited budgets and few resources at their disposal, small businesses need intuitive IT solutions,” said Richard Jonker, vice president of NETGEAR for Business. “The ideal scenario is easy-to-use networking that can be managed on the go, that consistently works to provide the 24/7 connectivity which is crucial to keeping a business afloat and the business owner’s mind at ease.” Jonker added, “Unlike enterprise network management solutions where the SMB is an afterthought, Insight is laser-focused on the SMB space and their growing need for performance, scalability, and mobility. Most cloud-managed networks are expensive, complex and ignore the most important screen of all, the one that is always with you – your smartphone. Whether your network is at your home, your store or a remote location, this line of networking products provides you with a secure way to identify, troubleshoot and resolve issues which might arise, anytime, anywhere.” Insight enables easy management of NETGEAR Smart Cloud wireless access points, switches and ReadyNAS storage products all from the app on a mobile device.
