Network Monitoring Application of the Year

I'm surprised that OpenNMS has not gotten more attention here. I suspect, however, that this is more a reflection of LinuxQuestions audience than OpenNMS.

Oh yes, guess which gets my vote...

Have worked on Nagios, found it useable. Based on feedback from this thread need to check out Shinken

nagios is a very powerful monitoring tool- you can easily (almost always) monitor everything you want to, from linux to windows servers, routers,etc. and it is for free! I have tested another tool before- an expensive one and not so flexible like nagios.

Nagios & Nagios XI is very proven and powerful monitoring tool.

+1 for Nagios

Huuummmm,

let me think.....

Nagios???

hahah yes, NAGIOS

I remember, one day, some one told me that nagios was only a poppet master and nothing else...
Well, I did agree, but it does it wonderfully well.

I used to work with Nagios but I tried Centreon Engine and Centreon Web GUI (http://www.centreon.com/Centreon/cen...-overview.html) and it really pleased me and was relevant for my needs.

So, I vote for Centreon Engine

Did anybody else tried it ?

migrating everything to shinken

Nagios, but I also like Spong (yes,it's old, but very simple and (+/-) efficient).

Nagios, I find it that would be more powerful if you could get more than one map to monitoring.

Nagios. Tried the others, too much glitz not enough stability. I'll stick with what works!

We switched from Nagios to Shinken and our performance issues went away (monitoring a lot of stuff on mediocre hardware). The features they are adding to Shinken shows a real solid roadmap that maps to what and how you would want to monitor as a business.

Etherape, not sure if it belongs here since it's not listed.
