The Log Shipper Poll results are in!  We run Logsene here at Sematext, so we wanted to know what the best log shippers are and what people like to use to ship their logs.  Before we share the results, a few words about the poll:

  • We published it here on our blog on September 22, 2014
  • We automatically tweeted it and posted it to several Devops and similar LinkedIn groups
  • We did not post it to groups or mailing lists for various log shippers we included in the poll to avoid bias
  • We collected 115 votes until now

That said, let’s see how log shipper popularity breaks down.
