The NXLog Community Edition is an open source log collection tool available at no cost. It is available for various platforms including Windows and GNU/Linux. The NXLog Community Edition is used by thousands worldwide from small startup companies to large security enterprises and has over 70,000 downloads to date. Its flexibility allows it to be utilized in various setups and can be used both as a log collector agent and as a log server.

In addition to the features that our NXLog Community Edition users love such as the flexibility, low memory footprint and high performance, the NXLog Enterprise Edition contains dozens of enhancements and additional features which can be useful in enterprise deployments. These features are enhanced reliability, support for additional log sources such as CheckPoint LEA, NetFlow and SNMP events, agent management and monitoring capabilities, remote Windows EventLog collection, ODBC input and output modules to read/write data into databases (e.g. Microsoft SQL Server) and many more.

Managing and monitoring a large number of log collector agents can be tough, especially if you have a lot of servers in different roles with multiple teams in charge. NXLog Manager can remotely manage and monitor NXLog Enterprise Edition instances using a centralized web based management console.

What Users Say

I really do have to give you credit for the flexibility and coding style used in nxlog, it really is very very well done.

While I have used both rsyslog and syslog-ng, I am now drawn towards nxlog as a more powerful tool. It does a lot natively in terms of log massaging and organization. Take a look at it when you have the chance.

nxlog is a GREAT application, and it has countless uses in my development test environment. Glad I ran across it!

We follow the market and in our world, nxlog is the hands-down best solution we see for our Windows users.

I wanted to pop in and say how impressed I am with nxlog. I really like the architecture and philosophy on how it is compartmentalized and tries to maintain structured data throughout the transaction. That makes perfect sense.

Awesome! everything is working as expected, thank you for the great support and product!

So overall, NxLog is amazing. It allows you to take the load off of your central syslog cluster and distribute it across all of your endpoints that are generating logs. This also decreases the amount and size of events coming into your cluster from the start so you are only getting exactly the items that you need.

I went in search of a logging tool that could solve at least some of these issues... After looking around for some time, I stumbled across nxlog. Nxlog seems to support just about every log format on the planet, and will run on Windows and *nix servers. Its easy to setup, and just seems to work. The configuration is logical.

This is an amazing product. Nxlog looks super-cool in so many ways.

I'm very new to this, but deeply impressed, what nxlog-ce is capable of...
