Log file analysis: Screaming Frog Log Analyser vs JetOctopus

Log file analysis: Screaming Frog Log Analyser vs JetOctopus
An underrated job most SEOs skip. I tested both on a month of real server logs from a 60k-URL site.

Screaming Frog Log File Analyser:
➕ Cheap (£99/yr), desktop, your logs never leave your machine
➕ Bot verification (real Googlebot vs spoofed) built in
➖ Manual — you upload logs yourself, no live pipeline
➖ Struggles past tens of millions of lines

JetOctopus:
➕ Live log streaming + crawl in one view — see crawl budget waste against actual structure
➕ Handles enterprise log volumes without choking
➖ Cloud-based and priced for bigger sites

Best for: Frog for one-off audits on small/mid sites. JetOctopus for large sites needing ongoing crawl-budget monitoring.

Price vs value: Frog is a steal for occasional use; JetOctopus only pays off past the scale where crawl budget genuinely limits you.

Pick this if you audit logs a few times a year on a normal site — Frog. Skip the enterprise tool until Googlebot's crawl budget is a real ceiling for you.
