can't even begin to tell you how superior Zenoss is compared to what

I've used Nagios and Cacti to good effect, although I will freely admit
the biggest problem (and that of many NMSes) is the lack of a single,
central, extensible CMDB (or inventory database, or simply a list of
'stuff you have').
At $JOB-1, I wrote my own CMDB which I believe is still in use. Sure,
you can use Rancid to back up your configs - I wrote my own tool - but
it all comes back to a central database of 'stuff you have'.
I've yet to see a really, really good off-the-shelf CMDB.
