eLogger
There’s no way around it: paper log books just don’t cut it anymore. You know what the problems are, and at Synapp North, we have the solution.

Logbooks scattered across your facility
How many times a day do you make the tour of your plant, reading half a dozen or more different log books, just to get a handle on what’s going on? With eLogger, all of that information is at your fingertips, accessible from any computer on your network. Communicate across departments and shifts with ease.
Illegibility
Sloppy handwriting, poor spelling, coffee-stained pages, and indecipherable abbreviations plague the average log book, but eLogger can eliminate them all. Log entries are neatly formatted on your screen, displaying only what you want to see, in the order you want to see it. Spell check and formatting (i.e. bold, underline, fonts, colors) are available.
Inaccessible old data
How many hours would it take you to find out who solved the bearing problem you had last year, and what they did to fix it? With eLogger, this information is seconds away. Filter your entries by location, log type, and date, all from the comfort of your chair.
Loss of information
How do you make a back-up copy of a paper log book? How do you know that your log book isn’t missing a page? With eLogger, backups can be automated with the power of SQL Server. You can also set up eLogger to prevent editing or deleting log entries, ensuring data integrity.
Unauthorized access
Have you ever worried about who is writing what in your log books? Would you like to make sure that employees can only write in the assigned log book for their area? With eLogger, you can limit read and write access on a per-user basis. Every entry is stamped with the name of the user who made it, allowing for greater accountability. If you allow employees to edit existing log entries, a full audit trail is available.
Lost documents
Do your employees spend a lot of time telling you that they never heard about that procedure change, or never got the memo about the mandatory meeting? Using eLogger, you can attach any kind of document to your log entries, be it Word, Excel, or a CAD drawing. There are no more excuses!
Unclear problem descriptions
You can only read about the “broken thing-a-ma-jig” or “missing what-cha-ma-call-it” so many times before you realize the truth: a picture is worth a thousand words. Multiple images can be attached and displayed in compact thumbnail format, easily opened at full size with a click of the mouse.
Need a link to your internal document management system, or maybe a reference to someone’s web site? Maybe you need a link into your maintenance management system, or to your company’s most recent news release. With eLogger, multiple URL’s can be attached to any log entry.
