  • Easy activity logging

    I use this across all my WP websites, and non WP sites. I love it because it’s agnostic to the technology, in other words I can log my servers and devices as well, but consolidated in one central logging platform. Great from a visibility standpoint and to help satisfy security requirements.

  • Use it on all my sites

    Maybe a biased review, but I use it on all my sites. Nothing better than having good logging showing all of what is happening inside WordPress.
