Saucal’s road to excellence

Keeping clients happy, being transparent, and delivering on time are challenges for developer companies. But Saucal continuously exceeds the expectations of its clients – just look at their testimonials page.

Having the right tools in place is crucial to doing your best work. While this is true in any domain, when it comes to WordPress it is especially important. With their extensive portfolio of clients and services, Saucal identified a need to have an audit log that keeps track of important changes.

Keeping track of important changes has been one of the biggest motivators behind the deployment of WP Activity Log – especially when working with multiple stakeholders over long and short periods of time. As projects get finalized, new ones come in, and support and maintenance plans kick in, a consistent approach to tracking changes is a must.

For any eCommerce business to survive and thrive, accountability and responsiveness are two crucial elements that often get overlooked – or at least not given the appropriate amount of attention. Holding people accountable while ensuring you have the systems in place to respond to incidents quickly and with a plan can ensure that any problems that arise are dealt with swiftly and efficiently. WP Activity Log is one such system!

How WP Activity Log enables Saucal to keep on reaching new heights

WP Activity Log comes with a broad range of features and benefits, ensuring everyone can benefit regardless of their setup and goals. Because of how the business is set up and operates, Saucal needed specific functionality, which thanks to WP Activity Log’s flexibility they were able to accomplish easily.

Logging of critical activities

WP Activity Log can log a broad range of activities, making it the most comprehensive WordPress activity log plugin on the market today. It also features a number of downloadable extensions that allow for seamless integration with third-party plugins such as WooCommerce.

With WP Activity Log, Saucal focuses their activity on logging on plugins, themes, system, and WordPress. They also added all critical and high severity activities to make they don’t miss a thing.

Slack integration

WP Activity Log features many integration options, allowing WordPress developers, administrators, and agencies to integrate the activity log into existing workflows. Saucal chose to integrate with Slack, allowing them to be instantly notified of important changes.

“A big plus for us was the out-of-the-box Slack integration”

With Slack integration readily available out-of-the-box, Saucal found it easier to respond to critical and high-severity events as they arise.

Email notifications

Email and SMS notifications are a great way to be alerted of important events wherever you are. WP Activity Log also includes a trigger builder that allows you to specify which events you want to be notified of via SMS or email, helping ensure that only events that need your immediate attention are sent your way.

Saucal opted for email notifications on their own sites. They specifically configured WordPress system notifications to ensure they don’t miss anything while out and about.

Log retention

WP Activity Log features a configurable retention policy that gives administrators considerable control over how logs are saved, where, and for how long. Whether it’s meeting regulatory requirements or striking a balance between storage and wealth of historical data, WP Activity Log has you covered

Here, Saucal opted for a 6-month retention policy – giving them enough data to refer to any past incidents.
