It depends what kind of monitoring you are talking about. If you are looking for a cheap SNMP solution you should take a look at WhatsUp Gold. To analyze traffic patterns take a look at MRTG. Why can't you consider HP OV? They do have an NT version and I believe the cost is about 4k. It's pretty fairly priced I think.
