We primarily use:

Whats Up Gold Premium v11 
Solarwinds Orion
Cacti
Visualpulse


For anyone who is looking at monitoring infrastructure and their individual
customers, I would strongly suggest taking a look at AdRem NetCrunch.

The new version (v11) of WhatsUp Gold has really come around, it's finally
mature enough to be put in the same league as Openview, it has lots of new
graphing and reporting features.

Maybe I just do really simple stuff, or maybe I'm just twisted, but I never
found nagios to be all the complicated to setup.  Installed from package,
edited hosts.cfg and services.cfg and you are good to go.
