I'm actually looking into this myself, but I have a much smaller number of servers (5-7 probably at most), and I need the ability to script off of events that occur, like reaching certain maximum thresholds, etc. For me, the ease of utilizing the API is just as important as the effectiveness of the monitoring. Which of these solutions should I take a look at first? I had been planning on just using Nagios.<br>
