Tony ,
I don’t know Easylog, but most logging software can take input over the network directly from wsjt-x (and other programs like Fldigi etc) via UDP. You have to setup both ends to use the same port numbers, and take some config steps, and then as they say, Bob is your uncle! Fairly easy to set this up. In fact wsjt-x doesn’t even need to be running on the same computer as long as you have setup your network appropriately, including security/firewalls etc.

I currently use Easylog <https://www.easylog.com/>, which is feature rich and I like it a lot. It reads the radio settings via a USB connection. When I enter the call sign, it gets the contact name and location from QRZ and when I hit 'save', uploads it to LotW. There's no good reason to use the WSJT-X logging feature simply because it exists - especially since Easylog understands FT8.
