ISSEL Log Companion features

Unlimited exclusions and inclusions
Allows you to read an inclusion and exclusion file to specify what you want to retain or exclude from the log files. This way the continually growing list of robots can be excluded as a first step towards compliance. This also allows you to select only those logs that should be analysed.

Allows selection of specific audit period to make sure that only data for the relevant audit period is included.

Rapid processing

"Using the ISSEL Log Companion a company can save many days of having to write SQL queries against the web metrics database to become ABCE compliant.
