The solutions that LogLogic develops are designed to improve and enhance accountability for all sorts of businesses, companies, and organizations, whether small or large. The log management platform that LogLogic has is unique in that it allows LogLogic’s clients to collect, search and store the complete log of IT data for a comprehensive view of past and current activity in any given organization.
Because LogLogic’s product is so unique and effective in managing IT logs for all kinds of businesses and organizations, the company is growing at a rapid pace. Many businesses have started to use LogLogic’s IT log platform, because of easy use and the ability of this platform to capture data logs from a log in real time.

LogLogic has an aggressive vision for innovating leading log management solutions that effectively meet the needs of the companies which have a growing need to manage their IT logs and monitor all activity for records and security reasons. Furthermore, the fact that LogLogics has a good portfolio of Fortune 500 companies as its clients is a testament to the amazing success that LogLogics is having.
According to Pat Sueltz, CEO of LogLogics, as the company builds over the record growth it experienced in 2008, LogLogics is also expanding at a rather quick rate to bring to market a wide range of different products and services for its clients to aid in keeping track of their IT logs and keep them secure.
