I think they are two different type products. We use Zenoss as a central alert platform. Anyone in this list use Netcool Suite before? I think Zenoss could be a replace for the netcool ominbus (now tivoli event console). The alert/event function in OpManager is too simple. For extend the functions, I think another product from AdventNet, webNMS can be a choice.
