We use Icinga, a fork of Nagios.

I use Centreon. Its a commercialised Nagios with a nicer front-end, easier to use with auto discovery plugins and report generators. Still very flexible and powerful like Nagios, just not as painful to configure.  

Not sure what the paid version costs but you can download the evaluation from www.centreon.com.  On 12/04/2014 11:05 AM, "Radek Tkaczyk" <radek at tkaczyk.id.au> wrote:     

Hi Guys,  

I have been asked to review our network monitoring software that we use internally to monitor our own infrastructure, but also to monitor the various layer 2 and layer 3 customer tails we have around the country.  

I'm looking for any recommendations from people who are happy with the products that they have inhouse. Looking for a commercial product really (as long as it's not ridiculously expensive).  

At my previous employers we have used PRTG and Solarwinds, which were OK, but I know Solarwinds was very expensive. One important feature that we need is a device dashboard that will show us the status and details of a device like IP addresses, IOS and firmware versions, error stats, etc.  

Any suggestions from fellow ausnoggers here?  

Regards,  

Radek
