Log Manager for Orion is designed to make it as simple as possible to collect log data as well as view, search, and alert on those logs, all for an affordable price.

In this episode, join product manager Jamie Hynds and Head Geeks Patrick Hubbard and Leon Adato as they walk you through how to use the new log management module, review best practices to get the most out of syslogs, and of course cover how-to’s for deployment management and configuration.
