Many thanks for feedback, we will also have to check out Filebeat from Elastic or Logagent from Sematext.

I haven’t heard of Logcheck before – I’ll have to check it out, thanks!

Logstash used to be very popular, but there are lighter log shipper now – e.g. Filebeat from Elastic or Logagent from Sematext.

Another free and open source log management solution you may want to check out is NXLog, it is scalable and delivers high performance.

@Maclean,

Thanks for detailed explanation, now I know why Graylog2 is more powerful than any other logs tools, I think I should give a try…
