WhatsUp Event Rover lets you view and mine log data across all servers and workstations from one console. Using WhatsUp Event Rover, IT or security teams can easily spot check logs, or conduct ad hoc forensics to quickly respond to an emergency incident.
With WhatsUp Event Rover spot checking log files is much easier, since common security event identifiers are always paired with corresponding descriptions to minimize human error and save time. Plus you can rest assured that routine review or spot audits will not affect the integrity of log file stores.

Simplified Mining of Log Data
WhatsUp Event Rover's revolutionary tree-view structure means accuracy is improved and the opportunities for error are minimized. And, it takes the guesswork out of spot-checking log files for security events by always pairing common security event identifiers with friendly descriptions.
Reporting / Data Export
Basic ad-hoc reporting and data exporting are available, with no additional configuration needed. HTML reports can be generated from any branch of the tree. Related groups of events can be import into spreadsheets, databases, or the WhatsUp Event Analyst® application. And you can add comments to any report you create, to better explain what the data represents.
Ensuring Log File Integrity
With WhatsUp Event Rover, routine review or spot audits never affect the integrity of log file stores because all review is done with a backup copy. No clearing of the active log file ever occurs. If an event log yields important findings, you can easily add it library of saved logs for further review or forensic analysis.
Track Security Incidents
With WhatsUp Event Rover, you can define and save incidents to help you look for event patterns. Simply load a log file into memory and scan the log for pattern matches. From there, you can review the events that make up incident and easily export them to a CSV file or build an HTML report of the findings.

Do You Need a Comprehensive Event Log Management Solution?
With our WhatsUp Log Management Suite, you can automatically collect, store, analyze, and report on Windows Event and Syslog files. The WhatsUp Event Log Management Suite makes it easy to do near real-time security event detection and response, as well as historical compliance assurance and forensics.
How is Event Rover different from the Microsoft Windows Event Viewer?
Event Rover's architecture is dramatically different. For example, its tree view and sorting capability dramatically simplifies log mining and viewing. In addition, with Event Rover you can accomplish much more in terms of forensics than you can with an IS event viewer - including automatically saving local copies of log files before review and storage.
What are the minimum system requirements?
The Event Rover application needs a Pentium IV machine with a minimum 512MB of RAM and 4 GB of hard disk space for log storage.
How does Event Rover compare to WhatsUp Log Management Suite?
Event Rover is ideal for in-depth forensics since it provides single console access to all your Windows Event logs. The WhatsUp Log Management Suite is a much broader suite of modular applications that automatically collect, store, analyze, alert, and report on both Windows Event and Syslog files for real-time security event detection and response, and historical compliance assurance and forensics.
Besides Event Rover, the WhatsUp Log Management Suite also includes:
