I would certainly like to know.
It works like a charm for me. Granted, I do not use the advanced,
automated features. All my sites are on unix servers. I download the
logs and then just use WebTrends to do the analysis.
Just recently I doubted what it was telling me.
I did a check for just a one-day period.
I then wrote a perl script to extract that same day from the log file
(which was a respectable 40 meg for 7 days).
It checked out.
I haven't found anything wrong with WebTrends even though I have been
suspicious but that's when I would use perl or another analyzer to
compare against.
BTW, a corporate webmaster asked me what version of WebTrends I was
using. Another company he deals with did not know how to configure
their logs. I can imagine someone trying to tweak WebTrends to get
the referrals and keywords etc. when their log file does not contain
those values.
