SmartLogAnalyzer

SmartLogAnalyzer is a software tool that provides users with a simple means of parsing the logs written by Apache Web-server, convert them to an XML format and analyze them, so as to display useful stats about the websites users.

The installation process does not take very long and does not offer to download any products that are not actually necessary for the program to work properly. The interface you are brought to encompasses a pretty simple interface, as it encloses a few buttons, some boxes and a panel in which to display results, yet it does not have a very appealing aspect.

Although no Help contents, it becomes pretty clear that all types of users can find their way around it, including those with little experience with the IT world.

As stated above, this tool enables you easily convert the default access.LOG file created by the Apache Web-server to an XML format. It is possible to also convert the log time to the local computer hour, and show the resulted item in your web browser after the conversion process is done.

The analysis process can be started with just a click of the button, and lets you view information such as total visitors, pages and KB, as well as an analysis of all IP addresses that have visited your website.

In conclusion, SmartLogAnalyzer is a pretty handy piece of software, suitable to all types of users due to its overall simplicity. The response time is good, the system’s performance is not hampered as CPU and memory usage is low at all times, and we did not come by any errors, bugs or hangs in our tests.
