I would say Zenoss is looking good because of the inventory management you
can do and because of the logical structure it puts everything in. I wrote
an old dusty article a long long time ago on NMSs , maybe you can take a

Everything else just seems inadequate or poor.
And for goodness sake don't put nagios because it will take ages to
configure :)
Heh. In all seriousness though... it depends on your monitoring paradigm.
For example: many people use autodiscovery and friends to configure
their monitoring, or manual configurations.
We do the opposite. We have a single central registration database. All
hosts (and I do mean all) get entered into it. The nagios config is
built *from* that database. Rather than edit the config, you make the
database "be correct".
So, we spend essentially zero time configuring nagios. It's (re)built
once every 5 minutes automatically.
