Special Note for Existing ELM Event Log Monitor Clients

  Basic Windows Event Log Monitoring

ELM Event Log Monitor provides centralization of Windows Event Logs from both Servers and Workstations across your network, eliminating the hassle of using native event viewers and going machine to machine to "check the logs."

• Collect all events or use custom filters to collect only those you need to see.
• Several pre-configured Event Views allow you to drill down by event type and category.
• Easily create custom Event Views to see exactly what you want.
• Customizable notifications alert you as conditions change, allowing you to manage by exception and be proactive with corrective actions.
• Included reports satisfy most compliance and management requirements.

ELM Event Log Monitor 6.0 is offered as full-featured shareware that can be used to monitor up to 20 servers and 5 workstations FREE for one year.
