An excellent tool – In a review on firewall.cx, Alan Drury describes GFI EventsManager 7 as an excellent tool that will “make your life easier and help keep both you and your systems out of trouble” and rates it 9 of out 10. He said the product enables you to collect and archive event logs across an organisation, but “there’s so much more to it than that”. He highlights GFI EventsManager’s ability to run external scripts and adds that “customisation is one of the real keys to this product”. Although GFI EventsManager 7 may be a little on the slow side at startup, “this is a testimony to the fact that the product is doing a lot of work on your behalf and, to get the best from it, you really should give it a decent system to run on. The benefits you’ll gain will more than make up for the investment. Overall, this is an excellent tool that will.”- Firewall.cx, March 2007 |
