Compared to other log analyzers

□Code editing, cookies or scripts not required, but optional for hybrid analysis

 

□Uses existing log files, even from the past, and you are free to switch from or to another software without losing information

 

□Full control - data is kept on your computer and/or server, it's not collected or used by third-parties

 

□No foreign scripts. In addition to privacy concerns, every script  hosted on another domain slows your website down and/or there's a risk they won't load, or that are blocked by browser

 

□Shows any file type visits - you see stats for other files, not just pages (images, videos, PDFs, EXE, ZIP...)

 

□Shows access errors - you can investigate any error, such are missing files, internal server errors, access to forbidden areas, etc.

 

□Spiders/bots - easily include or exclude spider visits from reports, with just one click

 

□Bandwidth control - see if anyone is wasting your bandwidth by repeatedly downloading large files, embedding images to their pages, etc.

 

□Code editing, cookies or scripts optional for hybrid analysis, but not required

 

□Flexible and interactive reports - don't just accept developer's assumptions about what you are interested to see - create your own reports

 

□Track individual visitors - see any visitor's detail available in log files, including previous visits, hit details, accessed pages, etc.

 

□Change filters ad-hoc - adjust filters (parameters) "on-the-fly" and immediately see specific reports you need

 

□Goal conversions - define goals that you want to track and check how they relate to any segment

 

□Bookmarks - save custom reports so you can easily run them again later

 

□Every detail counts - analyze every bit of information - grouping less popular items under the "Other" label optional

 

□Optimized memory model - most other log analyzers use slow database systems to process data, which limits possibilities
