Summary Pro (perl-based, unix) is $US695 for up to 1000 domains. We run
this on a second box which gets logs via ftp from the main unix web
server (samba also works). 30-day eval available. Setup easy, web-based
config.

Nothing like a bit of off-topic on a cloudy bank holiday Monday...
For years I've been using Webtrends Log Analyser to run reports on usage
statistics of my sites and a few of my clients' sites, which is all well and
good
...until that is, I moved those sites to a new server.
Webtrends bottles it, running away, throwing a grand hissy fit and telling me
that I should upgrade with a clustertrends add-on, since I'm now quite
obviously using a cluster environment.
Webtrends is of course entirely wrong, but you try telling that to a wussy bit
of software like that. It's gone home in a huff and won't come out to play.
Of course the add-on is no longer available, due to a cunning ploy by the
Webtrends marketing division who decided to scrap all old versions, stop
supporting them and make lots of money by selling off an ultra-expensive piece
of crap called Webtrends 7.
I downloaded a demo of WT7 and tried to use it. I then stopped trying to use it
to save myself from almost certain brain failure, and have now drawn the only
possible conclusion.
Must.... start... from... scratch!
Must find new web analysis software that the bank manager will allow me to buy,
whilst simultaneously being fairly simple to use and actually give some decent
information about the logfiles. Webtrends 6.5 reports were pretty good... not
perfect by a long shot, but you can't have it all. But something like Analog
won't cut it. My clients will want to know why their nice logfile reports have
suddenly turned all crappy and worryingly short. Oh yes, it's quite often down
to quantity, not quality. You know how it is.
So I need your suggestions. Anyone using any decent logfile analysis software
that doesn't require a second mortgage and a PhD in astrophysics to get past
the initial installation? Answers on a postcard please... or perhaps an email.
Cheers
Taz
