Agreed. Using Compass for customer traffic and support (your pipe is full, here's with what) and Kentik for automatic RTBF.

It's hosted, priced based on endpoints (not quantity of exporters), great categorization (i.e. Netflix, Youtube, etc). They also do endpoint to customer mapping from various sources (DHCP option-82, RADIUS, their own management platform, etc.).

I've been doing some research into using Netflow again. Long time ago I used NTOP, but it sucked. Not sure if that's changed or not. Ideally would be a much newer improved interface type system that was hosted for a few bucks a month. Then I could just sign up and point my Netflow streams to it. I need one that is geared towards ISPs, not Datacenter/Servers. I don't care about netflowing and optimizing web sites, I want to profile my customer traffic. Ideally it would include features necessary for CALIA and law enforcement requirements. If it was also great at syslog management that would be a plus. The Dude currently sucks for syslog IMO.
