Which network monitoring system to choose?

Question

Computer networks

Help me decide on the choice of a system for network monitoring, the fleet is not large (500 - 1000 units of devices), the requests are also not large (at least at the initial stage):
1. The workload of switches (different parts of the network).
2. CPU load (perhaps temperature) on terminal stations running Windows and Linux.
3. The volume of hard drives.
4. Availability of devices.
5. The ability to pull charts :)
Since I have not dealt with such software before, the availability of information for mastering the software is important ...
Cacti and Zabbix are in mind, but I still don’t know what features they have :(

Answer 1

Zabbix

This.
There is nothing to add here, the answer is so obvious.

Answer 2

Zabbix+Grafana are great for the tasks described above

Answer 3

Zabbix + Grafana.
The first is the monitoring monster, a very handy monster. The second is dashboards. Convenient dashboards.

Answer 4

Telegraf + influxdb + grafana
And in addition logstash + elasticsearch and the same grafana

Answer 5

Zabbix. If you don't need reports by mail and collection of mega-specific information from devices, then you can try Observium.

Answer 6

Nagios
Zabbix

Answer 7

Nagios - state monitoring. Cacti
or Ganglia Alerts for Charts
Ganglia is very flexible and allows you to build charts from anything you can get a number from.
Cacti is good for collecting snmp metrics.
If you plan to use snmp to collect metrics, then it is a good choice.
Zabbix combine. If you have time to study...
