By far the easiest to setup and the best looking that we have found has to
be NetTracker from Sane Solutions (www.sane.com) You can purchase the
software from $495 on up, depending on the amount of sites and wether or not
you need it logged to a database. Or, if your an ISP, they will give it to
you for free but you have to pay them $5 per-site per month. This can work
out well if you add it as an optional service for around $10, then you make
money without having to dish anyout. It is definitely something to check
out, go to http://www.sane.com/demo/NetTracker/web2/index.html for a demo.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Off-topic: rec for web log/traffic analyzer
(Folks here are usually more helpful than other places...)
As a "boutique" ISP that specializes in webhosting, we would like to
incorporate a log analysis/web traffic reporting feature for our customers
as an optional service (and incremental revenue source).
Currently, we offer raw logs to our customers as an option and suggest they
use WebTrend or various shareware/freeware log analysis tools, but I believe
most of our customers are not that sophisticated and comfortable with
FTP'ing log files, running an analyzer, etc.
I think the ideal tool would run on our server and through a web interface
allow users to see a nicely formatted report
on their own website (based on virtual domain hosting).
I have come across a few possibilities, but wanted to solicit input here.
Commercial supported software is fine, as we have budgeted $500 - $1500, but
don't want to leap into very high-end, high-priced stuff.
We run NT servers, so the tool should be available for NT (Linux/Unix is not
an option for us - "don't ask, don't tell...")
