This is the perfect syslog server ever. It has most of the important functions and the interface is user-friendly. simple, easy, stable, and strong. I really appreciate for your effort. Thank you so much. I'm monitoring under 100 devices in my network, and it works awesome.

I am using this to monitor just north of 1,000 devices and catching 1 to 2 hundred log messages a minute just fine. I was a little worried this would not be able to handle it. Hopefully it is not dropping messages that I don't know about, but so far I don't see that with this product yet. Nice for real-time monitoring and being able to setup rules and filters are a HUGE plus with an environment this large. It's easy to get overwhelmed without being able to filter the alerts.

I absolutely love this project! Awesome user interface, great filtering, good file saving options, nice 3D Grid to view syslogs. All around great Syslog Server!! Also love that it does not require a service, but i think in maybe a corporate or business setting it could use the option for a service. Thanks for this great application! Hope you continue to work on this and would love to contribute if i could. Thank you!
