Vov Log Analyzer

Log files are documents that store information about occurring events. Most applications, especially those related to system management, create such files to record their activity. While experts can read logging data without assistance, developers have created applications to help less tech-savvy users analyze the recorded information easier. One of them is Vov Log Analyzer.

This particular application enables you to open log files on your computer, even if they include hundreds of entries. In other words, it is capable of reading large log files, which is one of its pluses.

Features:

• Simple one-window interface


• Open source file option


• Search functionality


• Keyword search within log file

Technical Specifications:

• File: log-analyzer.exe


• Publisher: VOVSOFT


• Price: FREE

Usage is very simple, as all the options are intuitively placed in a one-window interface, with no extra menus to deal with. In fact, there is nothing more than two buttons within the main window: one to open the source file and the other to perform a search.

Once you open the source file, you will notice that its complete path is displayed, which means the file is read by the application and ready to be processed.

Right below the browsing button, there is a text field where you can enter the keyword you want to look for within the log file. You just have to type in the desired text and press the "Search" button to begin. Vov Log Analyzer displays all the rows in the log file that contains the entered string.

Drawbacks:

• Lacks support for regular expressions


• Does not display statistical information about the source file

Designed to be simple, Vov Log Analyzer does not bring any novelties to the table. On the contrary, it is merely a tool to perform a search in a log or a text file. Although responsive and easy to use, additional improvements are needed for this application to be noticeable.
