I do like the idea of a paid support for maintaining a library of
templates for WISPS.
I only need two libraries to be concerned with Cambium and Mikrotik and
thats it.
If I had more time I would jump back into development for cacti.
I guess I could keep a site with a categorized set of templates for what
I have
The one thing I want cacti to do is group host and load that group
filter as a default view and we can choose what default group we want it
to be.
For example: Have a group for nothing but infrastructure and another for
subs(CPE) devices.
Then we have the standard filter for sub categories.
That is a feature I would definitely put some time into doing. I am
trying to do some simple themes to change fonts and colors.

I just don't see the point of Observium (paid) when you can run
totally free software that is more full featured and actively
developed by large ISPs:
OpenNMS - is used as the primary alerting/NMS system for some very
large tier 1 and 2 ISPs
Cacti - get it set up right with 60 second polling and properly
sized/stepped RRDs, and you can use it to chart things with any
arbitrary non-NMS datasource via shell scripts.
Grafana - pull data from a time series database like OpenTSDB and
graph it.
I don't rely on one but rather run cacti and opennms for everything.
OpenNMS handles the alerts and availability monitoring, cacti graphs
layer 1 and 2 parameters (optical DOM and RF variables) and layer 3 IP
traffic interfaces.

Adam from Observium? He since has "recanted his views" after being
banned from a forum or two and reddit and then started bleeding
customers.
Their supported devices page are now full of stuff most WISPs and
MSPs use.
BTW, observium is awesome and the paid version (like $225 a year) now
supports custom devices/OS's/OIDs.
