Real-time alerts
Alerts can be created based on tags or by setting criteria via the intuitive and powerful search capabilities of LogEntries. To not flood notifications it's possible to specify limitations for alerts, such as how many times an hour an event has to happen for it to trigger a notification. Notifications can be sent by email, mobile messaging or via webhooks (webhooks are sent server in real-time, so there's no need for polling for changes).

There's a limit of 100 logs per server

Logs can be colorized via third-party software
Logs can be colorized by installing Stylish, a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox that overrides CSS stylesheets, and writing a custom stylesheet. Papertrail's log entries have various attributes that can be used to change css properties for specific programs or systems, or based on message contents. Logs can also be colorized within the actual logs by adding ANSI escape codes (will override user-specific colorization).
