How To Centralise Windows Event Logs

Logit has come up with a simple and effective way to centralise your windows event logs in one central location. Using our agent to capture your windows event logs as soon as they happen allows you to have real time access to what's happening on your web servers. Once you have installed our agent we will start to send your event logs to logit, and they will end up in elastic search which allows you to unlock all the information held in what would be lots of text files and can be a nightmare to analyse and debug. Installing our agent allows us to live tail your centralised windows event logs by using https://logit.io/solutions/live-tail-hosted-logtrail and send them securely to our servers (compressed), if you have any questions or issues with installing our agent please get in touch with us.
